Auguste-Arthur Plisson (died August 1832[1]) was a French chemist. Born in Orléans,[1] Plisson was orphaned at an early age, but overcame the difficulties that caused him with the determination he brought to being a student of chemistry in Paris. Taught by Nöel-Étienne Henry, chief of the Central Pharmacy of Paris Hospitals (Pharmacie centrale des hôpitaux de Paris, today the Agence générale des équipements et produits de santé),[2] he won several awards from the School of Pharmacy of Paris, including a gold medal for chemistry in 1823,[3] and was eventually recruited by Henry to work for the Central Pharmacy.[2] After several years, during which he published a number of papers on chemical discoveries, he was appointed deputy chief. He was also a member of the Société de Pharmacie (today the Académie nationale de pharmacie).[2]

By the late 1820s, Plisson had become chief pharmacist at Paris's Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital.[2] In 1827, with Étienne Ossian Henry, the son of his former tutor, he discovered aspartic acid.[4][5]

Plisson died suddenly in 1832 as the result of an attack of cholera.[2]
