Cranberry feeding and a bacterial adhesion assay in cats
Direct · cat. Six neutered cats in a blinded dietary crossover experiment.
Tested form: Cranberry powder incorporated into the diet. Dose: 0.1% cranberry powder in the diet (Percentage of diet inclusion; dry-matter versus as-fed basis not established in the reviewed abstract). Duration: Two weeks for each dietary period. Comparator: Diet containing no cranberry powder.
Measured finding: Urine from the 0.1% cranberry period reduced bacterial adherence for 60% of the cats; urine from the 0.3% period reduced adherence for all cats in this assay.
Limitations: Six cats and short periods; ex vivo adhesion outcome rather than clinical infection. Cranberry extracts and other preparations were not established as equivalent to the powder.
