And with respect to organic molecular connections [i.e. material connections between molecules] (as a result of resonance forces, H-bridges, pi-complexes etc.) one makes further concessions.
In giving magnitudes of non-living true macro-molecules one wasn't particularly reserved. One mentions a molecular weight in polystyrol of millions, in polymethacryl-acid-methylester of up to 8 000 000, in polyisobuthylene of 15 000 000, and thus numerical values also indicated for virusses. Also from the morphological point of view one was little restricted : One spoke of long linear chains and of spherical entanglements, and also of starlike molecules (up to 8 chains radiating out from a center) and of "graftpolymerizates" (on the chain of the principal molecule as backbone, new side-chains are grafted.)
