Phytochemicals from cardamom plant extract are traditionally used to cure Tuberculosis. Molecular docking method applied using “Biovia Discovery Studio”. “High positive values of -CDOCKER energy and -CDOCKER interaction energy” suggested that acetic acid can effectively deactivate histidinol dehydrogenase (H37Rv) thereby interrupting the life cycle of the organism.
