Interacting selectively and non-covalently with chitin, a linear polysaccharide consisting of P-1,4-linked N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a repeating or polymeric structure, such as a polysaccharide or peptidoglycan. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any carbohydrate, any of a group of organic compounds based of the general formula Cx(H2O)y. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any polysaccharide, a polymer of more than 20 monosaccharide residues joined by glycosidic linkages.
