Aspirin rapidly hydrolyzes in various aqueous, organic and biological media. The decomposition of aspirin in the media that comes in contact with it during analysis in biological fluids for pharmacokinetic studies was investigated. These media included water, water-polyethylene glycol 400, water-methanol-acetic acid, phosphate buffer, freshly drawn blood and plasma from control rats and rats deprived of water for 36 h, and blood precipitated with acetonitrile. The decomposition as a function of temperature and pH was also studied. Of the various solvent systems studied, aspirin was the most stable in water-polyethylene glycol (4:1, v/v [vol/vol]), which provides an excellent medium for preparation of i.v. dosage forms. Phosphate buffer showed significant catalysis of aspirin hydrolysis. A more than 5-fold increase in the hydrolysis of aspirin was noted when the temperature was raised to 37.degree. from 22.5.degree.. The hydrolysis of aspirin in rat blood was 13 times faster than that in plasma, with an average half-life in blood of .apprx. 13 min. This creates significant problems in aspirin disposition kinetic studies. Mixing the blood sample immediately after collection with twice the volume of acetonitrile and then centrifuging gives a plasma-acetonitrile mixture in which no lysis of blood cells is observed.
