In Vivo体内
In vivo refers to conditions, procedures, measurements, or studies conducted within a living organism, such as an animal or human subject, rather than in a laboratory dish or outside a living system. In translation and localization, the term occurs in preclinical study reports, clinical trial protocols, pharmacology and toxicology summaries, and regulatory submissions that distinguish whole-body findings from test-tube results.

Where this term appears
In translation and localization, in vivo appears in non-clinical study reports, clinical narratives, pharmacology sections, and regulatory documents. Translators encounter paired terms like in vivo exposure, in vivo efficacy, and in vivo correlation in tables, titles, and data descriptions, requiring consistent distinction from in vitro and ex vivo across study protocols and summaries.
Translation checks
A common error is translating in vivo as 'in the body' in a way that creates awkward phrasing or fails to retain the Latin term recognized in scientific and regulatory texts. Overliteral rendering in study titles can also obscure the contrast with in vitro and ex vivo, which are often used as fixed categories.
Keep the term aligned across your files
Check intended use, warnings, document versions and approved terminology with the project team. Translation supports documentation; it does not establish product approval or regulatory acceptance.
Provide approved terms and previous translations with the source files. Agree how variants, ambiguous wording and revisions will be reviewed. Terminology maintenance and any termbase handback are confirmed in the project scope. See the 8-step AI + expert workflow.
