titration laboratory

CL 3 because I'm not sure what the best term for this in English would be - perhaps "quantification lab" would be better. Anyway, the meaning must be this: it's where they test the titres of their antibiotics and vitamins. The description makes it sound as if they also carry out other tests in this lab, but this certainly wouldn't be clear from the name.

If you want a generic translation, you could go for test laboratory or analytical laboratory, but the Italian name is much more specific than that.
