文摘

Artificial sweeteners were compared with sucrose in planarians. Splenda produced sucrose-like rewarding effects in a place conditioning assay. Splenda produced sucrose-like anxiogenic effects following spontaneous withdrawal. Maltodextrin, but not sucralose, produced rewarding effects. Equal did not produce rewarding and withdrawal effects.
