Translating cleaning instructions for a cannula, whilst I've translated it as "smear" in the section where it refers to a smear prepared on a plate for testing, they also use "souillure" to talk about the dirties cannula.

Here's an example of the context below:


"...our faciliter l’élimination del’excédent de souillures et de contaminants."

My colleague has suggested "contamination", but I'm hesitant given the use of "contaminants" directly after.

Thank you in advance !

impurity


Explication :
I would use "impurity" as it is a synonym of "contaminants" and it refers to the contamination of any type of body.

contaminant


Explication :
I think in the context, 'souillure' and 'contaminants' could be combined into one single term 'contaminants'.

sullying


Explication :
I will personally translate it as "sullying".
Your phrase: (faciliter l’élimination de l’excédent de souillures et de contaminants.) will be (facilitate the removal of excess sullying and contaminants.)
