In 2013 traces of perchlorate were detected in fruits and vegetable samples. Because perchlorate (ClO4 -) is part of a group of substances (goitrogens) that may inhibit the uptake of iodine by the thyroid, these findings caused commotion in the markets. Fertilizers were named as one of the sources of perchlorate in food. Therefore, at the request of the fertilizer industry, research has been conducted on perchlorate uptake and distribution in the most relevant greenhouse vegetable crops in Belgium and the Netherlands.
