What's the difference between olefine and unsaturated?
Olefine
Definition:
(n.) Olefiant gas, or ethylene; hence, by extension, any one of the series of unsaturated hydrocarbons of which ethylene is a type. See Ethylene.

(13) Detection is based on the mass increase accompanying replacement of ethylene by other gas-phase olefins to form the corresponding olefin-substituted products.

(15) That is, arene.Cr(CO)3 complex-catalyzed 1,4-hydrogenation of the dienes 13 and 58, obtainable from the Corey lactone in good yields, under high H2 pressure afforded the exocyclic olefins 14 and 61 stereospecifically in excellent yields, and these intermediates were converted to therapeutically useful carbacyclin (2) and its analogs 3-7 in a usual way.
(16) Resonance lines of the olefinic, methylene, methyl and carboxyl carbon nuclei are sufficiently characteristic to permit unequivocal designation of double bond position for each isomer.
(17) These deal with: (a) reactive properties of nucleic acids, including their component bases; (b) biological recognition processes, including drug-receptors and enzyme-substrate interactions; and (c) chemical carcinogenesis, referring specifically to the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and halogenated olefins and their epoxides.
(18) For olefins an initial electron transfer to oxidized haemprotein gives a substrate cation radical.

(20) A series of lysophosphatidylethanolamine analogs containing saturated and methylene-interrupted cis-olefinic fatty chains was synthesized by phosphorylation and phosphonylation of respective fatty alcohols.
Unsaturated
Definition:
(a.) Capable of absorbing or dissolving to a greater degree; as, an unsaturated solution.
(a.) Capable of taking up, or of uniting with, certain other elements or compounds, without the elimination of any side product; thus, aldehyde, ethylene, and ammonia are unsaturated.
Example Sentences:

(3) In general, optimal DAGAT activity in vitro was observed when long-chain unsaturated acyl-CoAs and diacylglycerols (DAGs) containing long acyl chains were used as substrates for in vitro TAG synthesis (although 1,2-didecanoin was also very effective).
(4) Saturated acyl residues predominated in lysolecithin and unsaturated ones in acids released by hydrolysis of egg lecithin.
(5) The content of unsaturated fatty acids in walleye pollock PRM is 1.4 times greater than in frog PRM.
(6) Taken together with other physical studies on the effect of vitamin E on (unsaturated) phospholipids, these results indicate that vitamin E could influence the physical properties of membrane phospholipids in addition to its known antioxidant role.
