Not sure, but I found some no-so-positive sites about it:
The Potential Dangers of Sucralose
Splenda is Not A Healthy Sweetner
Sucralose Toxicity Information Center
The first two sites are by the same author.
*trying to ween herself from those sweetners, but it's hard to do when just about everything contains it!*
