The warfarin–cranberry juice interaction revisited: A systematic in vitro–in vivo evaluation
BACKGROUND: Cranberry products have been implicated in several case reports to enhance the anticoagulant effect of warfarin. The mechanism could involve inhibition of the hepatic CYP2C9-mediated metabolic clearance of warfarin by components in cranberry.

متن کاملProduction of antioxidant enriched cranberry juice by electrodialysis with filtration membrane : impact of process on juice composition
Cranberry juice is recognized for its nutraceutical properties. Recently, it was demonstrated that it is possible to enrich a cranberry juice in antioxidants from another cranberry juice by an electrodialysis with filtration membrane (EDFM) process. In order to transpose this technology on an industrial scale for the production of an antioxidant enriched cranberry juice, the present work aimed ...
