The term Glatt kosher (although it is often used colloquially to mean "strictly kosher") literally means "smooth," and properly refers to meat where the lungs have absolutely no adhesions (i.e., scars from previous inflammation), thus there was never even a question of their not being kosher. Part of Glatt kosher processing requires observation and rule-out of over 70 possible irregularities that, if they existed, would render the meat non-Kosher. Also, inspection of the lungs as stated above, to verify no adhesions, blebs, etc. Additionally, if the hind end of the animal is to be used, the sciatic nerve must first be removed en toto. It should be noted that Lungs cannot be legally sold in most countries at this time, including the US, due to the range of zoonotic parasites that can live there, and be passed on -- something Leviticus understandably missed. In closing, it's remarkable how many of the dietary laws laid down in Leviticus thousands of years ago, more recently have shown to have good dietary science as a basis.

What is the scientific name for kosher salt?

"Kosher salt" is chemically the same as regular table salt, sodium chloride. It's not that the salt itself is kosher (it is, but so is just about any pure table salt). It's really more "koshering salt" ... suitable for use in salting meat to make it kosher (by removing the blood). Kosher salt is usually physically, not chemically, different from regular table salt. The grains tend to be larger and in the form of flat flakes rather than tiny cubes. Kosher salt usually contains no additives such as iodine (regular table salt is often sold with added iodine, usually labelled "iodized salt").
