It was shown recently that the binding of <jats:italic>Neisseria meningitidis<\/jats:italic> pili to immobilized human epithelial cells is inhibited by molecular size fractions (10\u2013100\u2009kDa) of berry juices. Additionally, the isolated meningococcal pili bound to polyphenolic fractions of berry juices. The present study investigated the antiadhesive effects of berry juice polyphenolics against living meningococcal bacteria in a human epithelial cell culture model. The ability of bilberry, cranberry, crowberry and lingonberry juice polyphenolic fractions to inhibit the attachment of <jats:italic>N. meningitidis<\/jats:italic> bacteria to HEC\u20101B human epithelial cells in a cell culture model was examined. The antibacterial effect of the fractions was tested using a microtiter broth microdilution assay. The most effective adhesion inhibition of 75% was achieved with cranberry juice polyphenolic fraction followed by crowberry (63%), bilberry (63%) and lingonberry (57%) juice polyphenolic fractions. Bacterial survival rates after incubation with the fractions varied between 75\u2013100%. The present results suggest berry juice polyphenols as inhibitors of adherence of <jats:italic>N. meningitidis<\/jats:italic>. Thus the binding of meningococci to berry juice polyphenols might be protective for the host against the infection.
