Site Explanation: Interpreto que por 'laboratorio' se entiende el elaborador de productos medicinales, como es muy común denominarlo en Argentina. Por eso sugiero 'Site' para tu traducción. |

installation Explanation: One option is to use "The laboratory installation is located in Rosario; it has modern facilities ...." (to avoid the repetition of the word facility/facilities). facility noun 1. a place, amenity, or piece of equipment provided for a particular purpose. "cooking facilities" synonyms: provision, space, means, solution, potential, prerequisite, equipment "many shopping centres include car-parking facilities" amenity, resource, service, advantage, convenience, benefit "there is a wealth of local facilities" establishment, centre, installation, place, depot, station, location, premises, site, post, base, camp; informal joint, outfit, set-up "a medical facility deep in the jungle" Other synonyms such as "laboratory site"/"premises" don't sound quite right, IMO. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 days (2016-05-21 19:57:55 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Thanks. |
