Fill-finish

[wuvuddicu]

Hi everybody,
I was wondering about the meaning of "fill-finish". I found this term in a industrial biotechnology paper. Here it is in its original sentence:

...the development of reliable fill-finish operations for therapeutic antibodies.

It sounds like "riempimento finale", but in italian this has no sense at all. Anyone could help me please? Thanks in advance,

Wuvuddicu

Hi,
Hi,
"Fill-finish" is the last process in the production of pharmaceuticals and implies the filling of the bottle, and any post-filling processes.

I've found THIS Italian text where "fill-finish" is translated as...drum roll..."fill-finish".

This is such a technical field those types of ultra-technical jargon are not translated.

Hi Timla,

many thanks. Therefore the right italian traslation might be "formulazione".

Have a good day,

Simone
