Isohemiphloin exhibits notable antifungal and antibacterial properties, making it valuable in agricultural applications for protecting crops against fungal pathogens. It has been studied for its ability to inhibit spore germination and mycelial growth in various plant-infecting fungi, offering a potential natural alternative to synthetic fungicides. Additionally, isohemiphloin shows moderate antioxidant activity, which may contribute to its protective role in plant defense systems. Research also suggests possible applications in pharmaceuticals due to its bioactive scaffold, supporting development of derivatives for antimicrobial therapies. Its presence in certain medicinal plants indicates a role in traditional medicine, though further studies are needed to fully explore its therapeutic potential.
