Hello, this is from a series of lab tests - in this case a macroscopic urinalysis
listed are things such as:
GLUCOSE (BAT.)
CÉTONES (BAT.)
DENSITÉ (BAT.)

If anyone knows what Bat. stands for, I would greatly appreciate it :)

: "Disagree" with first suggestion but "Agree" with your additional notes from 07:54:56 onwards. Sorry I had not read the complete text of your post when I posted my suggestion. I go with "BAT value".

"Definition
The BAT value (“Biologischer Arbeitsstoff-Toleranz-Wert”: biological tolerance value for occupational exposures) is defined as the maximum permissible quantity of a chemical substance or its metabolites or the maximum permissible deviation from the norm of biological parameters induced by these substances in exposed humans."
--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 3 hrs (2013-07-02 09:36:45 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------
The full stop/period after the BAT easily leads one to considering this not only an an acronym but also as a possible abbreviation. A detail but when you are translating, these things count, don't they?!
