German to English translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / Manufacture of pharmaceuticals
German term or phrase: Auslegung
From a Swiss document.

Under "Sterilfiltration"

Start Auslegung .............

It's the time element that has me confused here.

Any help appreciated!

exposure
Explanation:
My understanding is that these plates are used to monitor the air in the room while performing processes that need to be in a sterile environment. The plates are exposed to the room air. So Start/Ende Auslegung would be the start and end of the exposure.
