Phytochemicals from Trigonella foenum-graecum plant extract can cure Cellulitis. The objective of the study is to identify the phytochemical of Trigonella foenum-graecum capable of curing Cellulitis. Molecular docking method applied using “Biovia Discovery Studio”. “The experiment shows that the phytochemical sarginine, carpaine, choline, gentianine and diosgenin failed to deactivate the UDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase enzyme of Streptococcus pyogenes for treating Cellulitis.
