blood donation
The sentence is:
"la qualité et la sécurité des produits sanguins repose sur une grande rigueur dans la qualification biologique du don et de la distribution"
I'm not sure if this is a question of labelling or...?

I certainly haven't see anything resembling "biological qualification" on any blood bank sites. This is French health administrative talk. There may well not be a specific equivalent in English.

Note from asker:
| Even 'biological qualification' doesn't sound English to me, and the google references are translations...however, it's a bit more specific than overall quality control or assurance as it refers to the screening, analyses and assays used to determine if a given blood sample or product is usable. |

: You are right, of course, and I was too hasty with my first agree. However, I've found one reference to "biological qualification" that isn't a translation. On a NASA page on Planetary Protection Provisions for Robotic Extraterrestrial Missions... ;-)

biologic qualification procedure
The results clearly demonstrate that anti-HIV screening should not be withdrawn from biologic qualification procedures of blood donations, even when single NAT is performed

biological qualification
if this refers to a “label” that is attached or comes with the product that amongst all will state the source of the product, supply or destination (“destined for so-so-and-so persons/bodies/environments) of product, otherwise, I’m no help. Very narrow context. i went through the post on "procedure" before submitting this
