용도
fenugreek extract (Trigonellafoenum-graecum) is considered an emollient, anti-inflammatory, and healing ingredient. It can also be used to mask odor or add fragrance to a product. It was traditionally used in treatments for irritated skin. The seeds of this annual herb have been used through the ages and were held in high regard among the egyptians, greeks, and Romans for medicinal and culinary purposes.
Essential oil composition
Fenugreek seeds contain a high proportion (40%) of a soluble fiber known as mucilage. This fiber forms
a gelatinous structure (similar to guar gum). Its main constituent is anethole. The dried product and its extracts contain trigonelline
(alkaloid). Six new furostanol-type steroid saponins called trigoneosides (Xa, Xb, XIb, XIIa, XIIb, and XIII) were isolated from the
seeds of T. foenum-graecum L. together with six known furostanol-type steroid saponins: trigoneosides Ia, Ib and Va, glycoside D,
trigonelloside C and compound C. Several coumarin compounds have been detected in fenugreek seeds. The leaves of the plant are
reported to contain seven saponins called graecunins.
