Dans le domaine oléicole, la dénomination «vierge» renvoie à un seuil de qualité, soit 2 grammes d'acide oléique pour 100 grammes d'huile. Comme l'huile d'olive dite «extravierge» surpasse le seuil de qualité attribué à l'huile d'olive dite «vierge», l'huile d'olive extravierge est, d'un point de vue scientifique, «plus vierge» que l'huile d'olive vierge. 5, record 3, French, - huile%20d%27olive%20extravierge

Sulfonamides are known to interfere with the plasma protein binding of numerous other drugs. These agents, in turn, may compete with the sulfonamides for available binding sites. The net result depends on the relative concentrations of the agents involved and their binding affinities; but, in theory, the plasma level of free sulfonamide or other drug may be altered, with enhancement of its action or toxicity, whenever a sulfonamide is used concurrently with another agent that is markedly protein-bound. 1, record 6, English, - protein%2Dbound
