(7) An extra virgin or virgin olive oil that exhibits 4 ,0 < campesterol % ≤4 ,5 is authentic provided that stigmasterol ≤  1,4%, Δ -7-stigmastenol  
EN 4  EN ≤ 0,3% and all other parameters lie within the limits fixed in this Regulation.

(9) An extra virgin or virgin olive oil  that exhibits 0 ,5 < Δ -7-stigmastenol % ≤ 0 ,8 is authentic provided that  
apparent β -sitosterol/campesterol ≥ 28, ΔE CN42 ≤│0.10│and all other parameters lie within the limits fixed in this Regulation.  
(10) A lampante olive oil  that exhibits 0 ,5 < Δ -7-stigmastenol % ≤  0,8 is authentic provided that  
apparent β -sitosterol/campesterol ≥  28, ΔECN42 ≤│0 ,15│, stigmastadiene  ≤ 0,30 and all other parameters lie within the limits fixed in this 
Regulation.  
(11) A refined olive oil or olive oil composed of refined olive oil and virgin olive oils  that exhibits 0 ,5 < Δ-7-stigmastenol % ≤  0,8 is authentic 
provided that apparent  β-sitosterol/campesterol  ≥ 28, ΔECN42≤│0 ,15│ and all other parameters lie within the limits fixed in this 
Regulation.  
(12) A crude olive -pomace oil or refined olive -pomace  oil or olive -pomace oil  that exhibits 0 ,5 < Δ-7-stigmastenol % ≤  0,8 is authentic 
provided  that stigmasterol ≤1 ,4%, ΔECN42 ≤│0 ,40│ and all other parameters lie within the limits fixed in this Regulation.  
(13) 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 alc ohol content  
is less than or equal to 350 mg/kg or if the erythrodiol and uvaol con tent is less than or equal to 3 ,5 %. 
(14) Oils with an erythrodiol + uvaol content of between 4,5 and 6  % must have an erythrodiol content of less than or equal to 75 mg/kg.  
(15) Oils w ith 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 and if the erythrodiol and uv aol content is greater than 3 ,5 %. 
Notes:  
(a) The results of the analyses must be expressed to the same number of decimal places as used for each characteristic. The last digit must be 
increased by one unit if the following digit is greater than 4.  
(b) If just a single characteristic does not match the values stated, the category of an oil shall  be changed or the oil shall be  declared non -compliant 
for the purposes of this Regulation.   
EN 5  EN (c) For lampante olive oil, both quality characteristics marked with a n asterisk (*) may differ simultaneously from the limits established for that 
category.  
(d) If a characteristic is marked with two asterisks (**), this means that for crude olive -pomace oil, it is poss ible for both the relevant limits to be 
different from the stated values  at the same time. For olive -pomace oil and refined olive -pomace oil , one of the relevant limits may be different 
from the stated values. ’
