    Citation Excerpt :

    No effective treatments exist for these progressive disorders (Muller et al., 2007). More recently, benzoate was cited as one of a number of food additives and colorants that constitute a significant contributory factor to hyperactivity in children (Eigenmann and Haenggeli, 2007). Finally, studies using zebrafish larvae as a model organism have reported that benzoate exerts teratogenic and neurotoxic effects in embryo development (Chen et al., 2009; Tsay et al., 2007).
