a

Other fatty acids content (%): palmitic: 7,50-20,00; palmitoleic: 0,30-3,50; heptadecanoic: ≤ 0,30; heptadecenoic: ≤ 0,30; stearic: 0,50-5,00; oleic: 55,00-83,00; linoleic: 2,50-21,00.

See the Appendix to this Annex.

c

App β-sitosterol: Delta-5,23-stigmastadienol + chlerosterol + beta-sitosterol+sitostanol + delta-5-avenasterol + delta-5,24-stigmastadienol.

d

Oils with a wax content of between 300 mg/kg and 350 mg/kg are considered to be lampante olive oil if the total aliphatic alcohol content is less than or equal to 350 mg/kg or if the erythrodiol and uvaol content is less than or equal to 3,5 %.

e

Oils with a wax content of between 300 mg/kg and 350 mg/kg are considered to be crude olive-pomace oil if the total aliphatic alcohol content is above 350 mg/kg or if the erythrodiol and uvaol content is greater than 3,5 %.]
