Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals
Japanese term or phrase: 詰替作業
Hello.
This phrase occurs in a SOP manual by a company that sterilizes pharmaceuticals by radiation. To give you more context, the entire sentence reads: 顧客指示により当社で詰替作業を行い、詰替作業完了後照射を行う製品については、一時業務部が製作した「詰替品管理票」で受け入れ検査行う。
I'm not really sure what 詰替作業 means here. Literally 'refilling,' but I don't see how that would fit. Are they talking about repackaging the customer's products prior to irradiating them?
Any help appreciated!

agree  Port City: 詰替 for refilling is used only for replenishing emptied containers. So, this must mean repackaging.
