Italian term

flc

Italian to English Science Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng
Here's the context:

Allegato A2 per la Soluzione Campione di Cytosar 100 mg flc
Allegato A3 per la Soluzione Campione di Cytosar 500 mg flc
Allegato A4 per la Soluzione Campione di Cytosar 1 g flc

I don't know what 'flc' stands for in this case. I suspect it may not need to be translated, but would appreciate confirmation or correction.

Sorry: ampoule is referring only to the water for injection container. Definitely "vial"

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you everyone for your answers. Marie-Hélène's answer and cocotier's answer are both correct, with the same level of confidence, same number of agrees, and same time of submittance, so it's difficult to award points to just one. However, in this case, I am going with cocotier because the reference cites the exact product I am dealing wth, which is a big help. Grazie ancora a tutti!"

deve trattarsi di flacone, che essendo molto piccolo chiamerei little bottle

in effetti 500 mg è circa 0,5 litri e quindi forse solo "bottle" è meglio

vial

Gian is absolutely correct that flc = flacone, and that the normal translation for this is "bottle". However, as in this case a very small quantity is involved (500 mg is half a gram, not half a litre), I'd be inclined to translate it as vial.
