This study aimed to conduct bioassay-guided fractionation of &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt; leaves with gallic acid as a reference compound, and to screen for other possible compounds responsible for the antihypertensive effect. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum &lt;/em&gt;leaves were extracted using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol, and water. The most active crude extract was fractionated using column chromatography and analyzed for total phenolic content (TPC) (n=3). Crude extracts and the derived fractions were intravenously administered into pentobarbital-anaesthetized Spontaneously Hypertensive rats (n=5) for recording of blood pressure parameters. Liquid Chromatography-Quadruple Time-Off-Flight/Mass Spectrometry was used for determination of chemical composition. One-way and two-way ANOVA were used for statistical analysis using GraphPad® PRISM Version 6. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Fractionation of aqueous &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt; leaves extract (ASP) afforded nine fractions, later combined into three fractions (F1ASP, F2ASP, and F3ASP) based on the thinlayer chromatography profiles. ASP has the highest TPC while F2ASP has the lowest TPC. All fractions exhibited significant antihypertensive property, but F2ASP was the most active fraction. Few phenolics with related antihypertensive effects such as 1-galloyl glucose (a gallic acid-derivative majorly found in F2ASP and F3ASP), and other compounds such as polydatin, sesamol, brazilin, eugenol, ellagic acid, kukoamine A, and cyclocurcumin were found across all active fractions. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;These phenolics may partly contribute to the antihypertensive effect of &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt; leaves, thus further isolation study is recommended.&lt;/p&gt;

Normally, its phytochemicals are always extracted using solvent, maceration and steam distillation methods, but the use of ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) method is still not well documented. &lt;strong&gt;Aims:&lt;/strong&gt; This study aims to extract the phytochemical compounds present in &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt; leaves using UAE and to identify them by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Methodology:&lt;/strong&gt; The leaves were consecutively soaked with n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol in a bath sonicator to derive n-hexane (HSP), ethyl acetate (EASP), and methanol (MSP) extracts of &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt; leaves and then the extracts were subjected to GC-MS analysis. Mass-spectral databases of peaks were compared with database from Wiley, NIST and FNSCC libraries for compound identification. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; GC-MS analyses of HSP, EASP and MSP showed the presence of 21, 27, and 31 peaks, respectively. The major compound for HSP (31.912%), EASP (27.042%), and MSP (22.386%) were unknown compounds which were detected at retention time between 61.980 and 62.29 min, thus requires further characterization. Squalene and phytol were among the other major compounds present in all three extracts. Several identified compounds in the extracts such as squalene, phytol, hentriacontane, palmitic acid, &amp;alpha;-pinene, nerolidol, linalool, &amp;alpha;-tocopherol and &amp;beta;-tocopherol were known bioactive compounds. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; GC-MS analyses of n-hexane (HSP), ethyl acetate (EASP), and methanol (MSP) of &lt;em&gt;S. polyanthum&lt;/em&gt; leaves extracts have revealed the presence of some known bioactive compounds with therapeutic importance.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">110</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Erlena Nor Asmira Abd Rahim&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Azlini Ismail&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;*, Muhammad Nor Omar&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Umi Nadhirah Rahmat&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;, Wan Amir Nizam Wan Ahmad&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
