Uses: This product is mainly used for the synthesis arbutin. Used as medicine, pharmaceutical intermediates and its modification, synthon of bioactive materials, activators of peroxides, additive of medicine, food and plastic, antisolvent crystallizations of pharmaceutical, enzyme and biomolecule, acetylation treatment of wood, nona porogen of polysilsesquioxanes film, standard of determination acetyl group, enzyme substrate in bioresearch, monitoring human body gluconeogenesis, fabrication molecular size nanopores for nano-thin films of phospholipids-hydrophobic polymers, synthese of biomaterials, glycoside liquid crystal materials, alkyl glucoside surfactants, low-molecular-mass gelators with sugar-appended, chiral bidentate ligands and ionic liquids, sugar-base amphiphilic polymer, glycosyl-biodegradable polymer or copolymer, hydrophily glycosyl pulvinic acid derivatives, glycopeptide oligomers, building block of glycopeptide, various of glycosylation donor and its derivative, ect.. In addition, α-D-glucose pentaacetate has insulinotropic action and expected to be a new type insulin secretagogue. It also has certain antimicrobial activities including shigella dysenteriae, candida albicans, staphylococcus and more than 10 kinds of bacterias to be a potential antimicrobial agent. It has ovicidal effect on tetranychus urticae, whitefly to control arthropod pests. GPA is sufficiently similar to effectively mimic lipochitooligosaccharides (LCOs)-signal transduction, leading to cell division and enhanced plant growth, so used as plant growth regulators (PGRs).

As pharmaceutical intermediates it used to synthesis the following pharmaceutical or active ingredients: sterol glucoside toxins, echinatin glycosides, diosgenin, glucosyl saponin such as tigogenin and hederagenin saponins, photodynamic therapy. In addition, glycosylation the pharmaceuticals such as linsidomide, silibinin, tocopherol (naphthotocopherol), gallic acid, glibenclamide, clopidol can improve their bioavailability.
