Isocycloseram

Pesticide In November 2025, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approved agricultural use of isocycloseram as a pesticide. Because the compound is defined as a PFAS by the European Union, OECD, and several U.S. states, concerns were raised about health and environment impacts of the approval. The U.S. EPA does not consider chemicals with a single fluorinated carbon like isocycloseram to be PFAS and contends that "molecules with only one fluorinated carbon generally lack the persistence and bioaccumulation properties that are commonly associated with forever chemicals". == References ==
