Andrea G. Scientific American article citation is completely wrong and/or just can't be found.

TLDR; it seems like this source doesn't exist. I'm doing research for my AP Research class & can't find this Scientific American article based on its citation (it's the first cited reference) and honestly find the claim unsubstantiated based on the research I have done. I have no idea how Wikipedia works, but it'd be great if someone more knowledgeable than me can check to make sure that source exists and/or change the citation. Thanks.

Ook,pretty quick update; the only article published by the Scientific American in October about Oxymellis (.. that's free to access) was written by Leo Deluca, & was published October 1st, not October 11th. This article cited a research article titled "Sweet and Sour Synergy" which is accessible through the NIH.

Second update; upon reading Sweet & Sour Synergy, the article's findings don't well support the claim that there is a synergistic effect between honey & vinegar capable of causing 10^3 or 10^5 fold increases in cell death. The article itself states, "... we concluded that neither honey [Medihoney or Revamil] was synergistic or antagonistic with acetic acid, RWV1 [rice wine vinegar] or PV1 [pomegranate vinegar] against biofilms of P. aeruginosa, but that interactions between honey and acetic acid/vinegar should be further explored in the other data sets." 2600:4808:28B2:2100:96FD:72CC:DB61:5B0F (talk) 02:10, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
