Spanish term

zona de esterilidad

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Medical (general) SOP
Hola estimados colegas, estoy traduciendo unos SOP de una compañía farmacéutica. El término en cuestión es "zona de esterilidad", ¿qué diferencia hay con "zona limpia"? Busque en varios diccionarios y ambos términos pueden traducirse como "clean areas". Yo venía poniendo eso para "zonas limpias". ¿Cómo les parece que traduzca "zonas de esterilidad"?

Acá les dejo el contexto:

- Las Clases D de zonas comunes (pasillos, lavaderos, salas que dan servicio a los autoclaves y zonas anexas y la zona de esterilidad) se consideran en permanente operación.

- Monitorización microbiológica las salas de la zona de esterilidad

Gracias

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

No I don' believe in coincidences. I believe in destiny. ;-)

Is it just coincidence that there are two Spanish questions about "zona limpia" in half an hour? :-)
