If I search for N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)-nitrosamine I do not get chebi:91275 as the first match (or even on the first page of the results):

See the same search on the chebi website:

It seems like the exact match is not being boosted high enough?

Similarly if I search for l-lysine in CHEBI (via OLS) I get L-lysine residue first instead of L-lysine:

Seems this is a case sensitivity issue; if I search for L-lysine instead of l-lysine I get the expected result. But it should not be case sensitive.
