Embalming
The Вальзамация takes effect in 10 days. This seems slightly different from the 'balzamirovanie' or 'embalming' What exactly does this mean?

embalming
Только Бальзамация. And it's just a synonym of бальзамирование, which sounds kinda more professional.

Yes, it is effective for two days. And, again, no "В", "Б"!

: маленькая разница - Бальзамация это скорее embalmment ( а бальзамирование - embalming) - я имею в виду, что embalmment - это сущ. а embalming - герундий

: According to the Chambers dictionary there is no difference in the meaning of "embalming" and "embalmment"... though I can't claim to be an expert!!

Thank you. I have a vague suspicion there hardly are any folks on ProZ whose #1 topic is the one we're biting at right now :-)

Comment: "Thanks. As I don't know, myself, I will go with the votes on this. The typo was mine. Of course it should have been a Russian б. "

just a typo
"Бальзамация" is sometimes used as the synonim of "бальзамирование", so it's still embalming, balsamation, or embalmment.
Just a typo in your source, I believe.
