โฆ Synopsis
Temperature stability studies were conducted on 0.36 M (6.5% w/v) aspirin solutions including either 0.02 M L-methionine or 0.02 M histidine in propylene glycol. Aspirin was determined spectrophotofluorometrically as salicylic acid content at 412 nm. A 0.36 M aspirin in polyethylene glycol 400 solution was studied concurrently. Aspirin degradation rate constants, k, obtained from semilogarithmic plots of percent drug remaining uersus time at 30-70 f 0.5' were used for preparing Arrhenius plots. Good correlation was seen between predicted aspirin stability and experimental k2.p-values. L-Methionine and histidine markedly reduced aspirin stability.

The objective was to assess the impact of propylene glycol (PG), a common cosolvent in topical formulations, on the penetration of ibuprofen into human skin in vivo. Drug uptake into the stratum corneum (SC), following application of saturated formulations containing from 0 to 100% v/v PG, was asses
A study of the effects of temperature and humidity conditions on the stability of aspirin and ascorbic acid in various solid matrices was conducted. Among the diluents studied, cellulose and calcium sulfate were found to confer maximum stability on formulations of aspirin and ascorbic acid. The tabl
