Sulfluramid (Cat No.: R003470) is a fluorinated sulfonamide compound primarily used as an active ingredient in ant and cockroach baits due to its slow-acting insecticidal properties. Chemically known as N-ethyl perfluorooctane sulfonamide, it disrupts metabolic processes in insects, allowing it to be carried back to the colony for broader eradication. Sulfluramid is notable for its environmental persistence and potential to degrade into perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS), a recognized environmental contaminant. Its use is regulated in several countries due to ecological concerns.
