A name given to the dried swimming bladder or sound of Acipenser huso, and other species of acipenser, which is almost wholly composed of gelatin, and is employed in medicine in the formation of nutritive jellies. It is, also, occasionally used in anatomical injections. The English Court Plaster is made with it. In Russia, the Acipenser is not the only genus from which isinglass is procured; it is also obtained from Silu'rus Glanis, which Dr. Royle suggests to be the source of the Samoxy or Somoxy Isinglass of commerce. The sounds of the cod, ling, bake, etc., yield it. From these it is made in New England; and, in England, is termed New York Isinglass.
