Others—Pending OP Reply [Science fair] Assistance finding sources.

Hello,

This year I am doing a science fair project on preserving pumpkins with vinegar, petroleum jelly (vaseline), and a bleach mixture. I have found sources for the bleach but none for petroleum jelly. I had one for vinegar but it got blocked by the school and I cannot access it any longer because it turned into a popup site. I have looked everywhere and cannot find any sources for this. I have already done the pumpkins with the materials I have and began recording data. Could anyone help me find sources please?

Not sure what you want.

What is vaseline? How might it preserve biological materials??

A web search on something like

preserve with vaseline

will give much info.

What “sources” are you looking for? Do you mean sources of the material - like where to purchase it?
