- Any of the carbohydrates that yield only a few monosaccharide molecules on complete hydrolysis
- An oligosaccharide is a saccharide polymer containing a small number (typically three to ten) of component sugars, also known as simple sugars (monosaccharides). The name is derived from the Greek word oligos, meaning "a few", and from the Latin/Greek word sacchar which means "sugar". ...
- A carbohydrate made up of a small number of monosaccharides (usually between two and ten).
- Compounds in which monosaccharide units are joined by glycosidic linkages. The term 'oligosaccharide' is typically used to refer to a defined structure as opposed to a polymer of unspecified length.
- Carbohydrate consisting of several linked sugar units.
- A saccharide chain composed of several (usually 10 or fewer), simple sugars.
- A molecule containing a small number of sugar residues joined in a linear or a branched structure by glycosidic bonds.
