\item{translate_ab}{a column name of the \link{antibiotics} data set to translate the antibiotic abbreviations to, using \code{\link[=ab_property]{ab_property()}}. Defaults to \code{FALSE}. Using \code{TRUE} is equal to using "name".}
The returned AB codes can be transformed to official names, groups, etc. with all \code{\link[=ab_property]{ab_property()}} functions like \code{\link[=ab_name]{ab_name()}} and \code{\link[=ab_group]{ab_group()}}, or by using the \code{translate_ab} parameter.
With using \code{collapse}, this function will return a \link{character}:\cr
This function is also internally used by \code{\link[=as.ab]{as.ab()}}, although it then only returns the first hit and will throw a note if more results could have been returned.
