      abstract = {This book includes chapters based on the potential uses of  polysaccharides such as fibers in food and non-food  applications. The complexity of their synthesis in plants,  the highly multidisciplinary character of polysaccharide  research, and the wide variety of applications from food to  clothing to energy are addressed in this volume. The  authors describe in detail how these latter grand  challenges are of great importance in research, especially  in the midst of enormous overpopulation and economic  issues. Therefore, the volume contributes additional  information to the chemical, nutritional, medical, and  energy roles of these bio-based products, finding  applications in diverse fields of their raw and composite  forms. This volume is a useful resource for graduate  students and contains themes for instructors and senior  research leaders. Written by internationally renowned  experts, it is aimed at workers in polymer laboratories,  classrooms, and policy makers.},
