How much does medical instruction translation cost?
In recent years, my country's biopharmaceutical industry has developed rapidly. In order to meet the needs of the international market, many biopharmaceutical companies need to translate the instructions of products such as vaccines into different languages in order to provide them to overseas buyers, and also to facilitate the review of foreign testing agencies.
So, what is the charging standard for medical instructions translation?
Medical instructions are highly technical documents that involve professional biopharmaceutical knowledge. Therefore, translators with relevant backgrounds are required to translate them, and the translation costs are relatively high. Generally speaking, the charging standards for Chinese-English translation by translation companies are mostly between 300-500 yuan/thousand words. Due to the difficulty of translation and the high requirements of biopharmaceutical companies for translation quality, the prices are also at a high level in the translation industry.
Key points to note when translating medical instructions:
1. Accuracy of professional terms and abbreviations
Medical instructions contain a large number of professional terms and abbreviations, which is a key difficulty in translation. When translating, you need to rely on professional knowledge and experience to ensure the accuracy of terms and abbreviations. At the same time, translators must ensure the consistency of terms to avoid confusion between different concepts.
2. Comply with regulatory requirements
The translation of medical instructions must comply with the regulatory requirements of the target country or region. If there are differences, the translator needs to make appropriate adjustments according to local regulations to ensure that the translation results comply with the regulations and meet the needs of the target market.
3. Strict quality management system
To ensure the quality, accuracy and consistency of the translated text, the translation company needs to establish a strict quality management system (QMS). QMS usually includes project management, translation, review and quality control, aiming to ensure that the final quality of the translated document meets the standards of the target market.
4. Reasonable format and layout
The translation of medical instructions should maintain the same format and layout as the original document, so as to ensure that the translated content is easy to read and understand. In particular, it is necessary to pay attention to the accurate translation of important information such as drug name, product description, dosage and method of use.
How to do a good job in biopharmaceutical translation?
First of all, in biopharmaceutical translation, translators need to pay attention to syntactic characteristics. Texts in the field of biopharmaceuticals are usually more complex, and the syntactic structure is mostly long and complex sentences, covering multiple closely related contents. Therefore, when translating, it is necessary to master and skillfully use sentence patterns such as complex sentences and clauses.
Secondly, the use and accumulation of professional terminology is crucial. The biomedical field involves a large number of professional vocabulary, and these contents are usually written for professional scientific and technological personnel. Therefore, translators must be familiar with the standard translation specifications of terms to ensure that the original meaning is accurately conveyed.
Finally, with the rapid development of biomedical technology, the emergence of new terms cannot be ignored. Translators need to pay close attention to the translation of new technologies, new species and other terms, especially when new terms are not officially released, and their meanings must be accurately expressed and appropriate annotations must be attached to the translation. This ensures the accuracy and professionalism of the translation results and avoids the scientific nature of the original text being affected by translation errors.
