#purified

• Refined — Subjected to an industrial or chemical purification process that eliminated impurities, residual elements, or trapped gas bubbles; refined, purified. In the textile industry, it describes a yarn or fiber that has been thinned and structurally homogenized.
• Axungia — An archaic and neologistic scientific name of Latin origin for purified pork lard (Axungia porci), considered the choice greasy excipient in traditional galenics. This structural ingredient served as an ideal suspension medium for incorporating vegetal, mineral, or volatile substances, giving rise to delicate balms and creams that ensured deep hydration and a stable protective barrier on the surface of the affected skin.
