Sucralose (sold commercially as Splenda), a water-soluble chlorocarbohydrate, is a sweetener used to sweeten food, beverages, medications, etc., such as sugar, saccharine or other low-calorie synthetic products. In the European Union, it is also known under the E number E955. It is approved in USA by FDA under Chapter I-Food and Drug administration as a multipurpose additive permitted for direct addition to food for human consumption. Splenda is stated to be safe for use by subjects with type 2 diabetes since it does not effect glucose homeostasis in these patients. There is one ongoing clinical trial on effect and safety of sucralose in patients with type 2 diabetes in intensive insulin therapy.

Originator

Curator's Comment: Sucralose was discovered in 1976 by researchers at British sugar refiner Tate & Lyle. Four years later, Tate & Lyle joined forces with Johnson & Johnson to develop and commercialize sucralose under the auspices of a new company, McNeil Specialty Products (now called McNeil Nutritionals)

In Vitro Use Guide
To map of the sweet taste enhancer interaction site in sweet–umami chimeric receptors hT1R2-1/hT1R3 and hT1R1-2/rT1R3 stable cell lines were assayed by using fluorescence imaging plate reader (FLIPR). Dose-dependent response curves of hT1R2-1/hT1R3 stable cell line were determined in the absence and presence of SE-2 at sucralose increasing concentration up to 10 mM.
