Zusammenfassung

Die verschiedenen Vaccinium-Arten unterscheiden sich im Spektrum ihrer Inhaltsstoffe. Die skandinavische Preiselbeere (V. vitis-idaea) enthält mehr Wirkstoff als die amerikanische Preiselbeere (V. macrocarpon), früher auch Großfrüchtige Moosbeere, Kraanbeere oder Kranichbeere, heute eher Cranberry genannt. Dennoch besitzen auch Fraktionen aus der amerikanischen Cranberry eine starke Wirkung gegen Karies und Periodontitis. Der Wirkungsmechanismus ist weitgehend aufgeklärt. Die vorhandenen In-vitro-Daten erlauben derzeit noch keine Abgrenzung zwischen den Vaccinium-Arten, da nur wenige In-vitro-Studien mit V. vitis-idaea durchgeführt wurden. Pilotstudien weisen darauf hin, dass der Wirkstoff beider Vaccinium-Arten zur Förderung der Mundgesundheit genutzt werden kann. Weitere Studien müssen jetzt die Wirkgrößen definieren und den Unterschied zwischen den Vaccinium-Arten bei der Mundgesundheit evaluieren.

Abstract

Vaccinium species differ in their active principle. The Scandinavian berries (V. vitis-idaea) have a higher content of active principle than the American berries (V. macrocarpon), named Großfrüchtige Moosbeere, Kraanbeere or Kranichbeere, today rather Cranberry. However, fractions from Cranberry also have a potent effect against caries and periodontitis. The mechanism of action is almost identified. In-vitro data are insufficient to allow to differentiate between the effects of the Vaccinium species. Clinical pilot data indicate that the active principle of both Vaccinium species can be used to promote oral health. Further clinical studies are now required to evaluate the difference between the Vaccinium species.
