Dichlofluanid is a booster biocide that belongs to the sulfamide class. It binds with thiol groups, including the tripeptide glutathione, to inhibit mitochondrial respiration and lipid peroxidation.

Dichlofluanid is widely used in agriculture to control scab, brown rot, and storage diseases in apples and pears, Botrytis spp., Alternaria spp., Clasterosporium spp., downy mildew, etc. in vines, pome fruit, stone fruit, berries, strawberries, hops, tomatoes, cucurbits, vegetables, ornamentals, and conifer seedbeds.

Dichlofluanid is not approved in the European Union. A default MRL of 0.01 mg/kg has been set according to Art 18(1)(b) Reg. 396/2005.
Application
It is intended to be used as a certified reference material (CRM) for calibration in chromatography and other analytical techniques. Dichlofluanid CRM may also find its use as described below:To determine the concentration of dichlofluanid and its metabolite in seawater and sediment of three marinas in Greece before and during the yachting season
To evaluate the biochemical and physiological effects of dichlofluanid exposure on the brown mussel Perna perna
Photocatalytic degradation of chlorothalonil and dichlofluanid over TiO₂ suspensions
Testing toxicity of the fungicides penconazol, cymoxanil, and dichlofluanid and their effects on the specific growth rate, biomass production, respiration rate, and yeast viability
To estimate the rates of disappearance of dichlofluanid and tebuconazole following successive applications to two varieties of lettuce grown in greenhouse conditions
