Swedish term

Allsyning

Swedish to English Science Medical: Pharmaceuticals Laboratory procedure
Here's one I didn't get any hits when googling. I'm writing documentation for a pharma lab (which is not my regular gig).

One context is: "Instruktionen omfattar **allsyning** av parenterala produkter och buljonger samt syning av en mindre del ur producerad sats som kan tillämpas på icke-parenterala produkter"

Another is the definition: Alla enheter i en sats **synas.**

I've tried searching variations of this definition, which I've translated as involving inspection (of product), and not found anything conclusive.

But I wonder if there is a standard term out there that fits the definition. Or will I have to do it as a description.

Thanks in advance!

In this instance perhaps it's best to check with the customer as it doesn't appear to be in common use.....

Thanks for your suggestions... The best I have found is 'all-unit inspection' that corresponds to my context -- and that doesn't seem to be in common use, either. But then, when it is not 'all'?
Anna Herbst Oct 29, 2015:
Not at all sure, but... ... could it perhaps work if you used "visual inspection" making it "visual inspection of the whole batch" för "allsyning"? Have a look here https://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=we... and see if you get any ideas. (Ridiculously long URL but it works, it takes you to the pdf file "Guidelines for sampling of pharmaceutical products" from WHO.

The Swedish terms "allsyning" and "delsyning" don't seem to be in common use - I would probably prefer "kontroll" myself.

Thanks for the reference! This does involve 'sorting out' defective units,

Thanks Donald, but I tried these and didn't get them to work throughout the doc, especially 'partial'.
