Description Processed fish air bladder or swim bladder are highly
priced for edible purposes as well as medicinal value
in many countries of Southeast Asia. In addition, they
are widely used for preparing isinglass which finds
application in industrial processes such as wine and
beer breweries and preparation of cosmetics. Over the
last few decades, global demand for swim bladders has
increased exponentially which are sourced from countries
with a fairly good production of fishes that are most
sought-after for their swim bladders. Croakers are the
most preferred and highly priced groups in the swim
bladder trade, while several other fishes have also been
added to the list in recent years.
