contaminación retrógrada Explanation: Esta es nomás la expresión pre-fabricada en español. También se puede decir "contaminación x arrastre", pero eso es más para referirse al campo operatorio durante cirugías. En tu texto parece que el mecanismo de contaminación sería el agua que asciende desde el caño de la piletita, así que el adjetivo "retrógrada" va muy bien. Suerte Elena |
