German term or phrase: Spritzkolben
Context: Der blaue Spritzkolben wird gegen einen klaren ausgetauscht.
Es handelt sich hier um die Verabreichung einer Injektionslösung im Laufe einer klinischen Studie.

I could use injection piston; but I have my doubts if this is correct in this context.
Any suggestions?
