Cranberry juice and the antibacterial action of hippuric acid. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] In the 1840s German scientists researched the connection between cranberries and urinary tract infections (UTIs) after noting that urinary excretion of hippuric acid increased after ingestion of cranberries, which are bacteriostatic in high concentrations (Hutchinson 2005, Ulbricht 2005, Siciliano 1996). The further analysis of cranberry metabolites showed that the urine from Group III participants contained significantly higher levels of hippuric acid, conjugates of some other phenolic acids and quercetin glucuronide, but otherwise showed no significant increase in acidity. |
