Nitro-glycerine. C 3 H 5 (NO 2 )O 3 .

Nitro-glycerine was discovered by Sobrero, in 1847, but none could be obtained for physiological experiment until Morris Davis, a Philadelphia chemist, in the same year, after long and laborious trial, under direction of Hering, succeeded to produce the substance in sufficient quantity for proving. It was extensively proven here and abroad (See Allen's Encyclopædia, vol. 4, p. 425 ), and the symptoms have received abundant clinical verification.
