Spanish term

identidad

Spanish to English Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals
Hello all! I am translating a quality manual for a pharmaceutical company in Mexico. Below is a passage in which the term "identidad" appears in context, which is the objective for the section on manufacturing equipment:

Asegurar que todos los equipos de fabricación que afecten la calidad de los productos estén debidamente calificados en función de su diseño, construcción, operación y tamaño, de tal modo que permita a los operadores realizar sus actividades eficientemente, garantizando con esto la seguridad, *identidad,* potencia y pureza del producto fabricado.

I look forward to your responses. Thanks for your help!

Moderators, could you change the term to "identidad"? Thanks!
JoshuaV-M (asker) Nov 3, 2014:
Yes, I just realized that I made a mistake when I was posting the term. I meant "identidad," sorry about the confusion. What would be the term in English for "identidad"? Again, sorry about my mistake.

identity

"Identidad" simply means that the product really is what it's supposed to be and what the label says it is: it's identity.

"1. Identidad: Pruebas que aseguren que el material contenido en el envase se corresponde con lo indicado en la etiqueta del mismo."
http://www.ucv.ve/fileadmin/user_upload/facultad_farmacia/ca...

"The Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP) regulations address component sampling and testing primarily at 21 CFR 211.84. These regulations require representative samples of each shipment of each lot of active and inactive component (or raw materials) to be tested to confirm the identity of the component as labeled prior to release for use in drug product manufacturing. The regulations acknowledge that more than one test may be needed to ascertain a component’s identity. For the purpose of this answer, a component’s identity is its chemical structure and its physical form (e.g., polymorph, solvate, and appearance) including, if appropriate, its stereochemistry or immunochemistry. "
http://www.fda.gov/Drugs/GuidanceComplianceRegulatoryInforma...

The same list of properties, sometimes with minor variations, is standard in English:

"Therefore, changes in the manufacturing process, equipment or facilities may require additional clinical studies to demonstrate the product's continued safety, identity, purity and potency."

Sorry: I meant to put "its identity" in line 1, not "it's identity".

Spanish term (edited): identity

reputation or recogniztion

based on the idea I'm taking from the context, it's essentially saying that with the quality of the tools and the work, the security, "reputation", power, and purity of the manufactured product can be guaranteed.

recognition might also work but I like reputation better
