Citing a popular science magazine article In one part of my paper, I give a reference to a one-page article published in Science from (AAAS). 
There are some quantitative statements in this one-page article. However, I could not find any reference for these quantitative results presented in the article. 
There exists a DOI number of the article. 

My question :  Is it acceptable to cite this kind of article in a paper to be sent to a peer-review journal ?

I have cited a popular science article (specifically, an article in Scientific American) as well as a citation to a fan-maintained video game Wiki in one of the best medical journals in the world.

If it's the most appropriate source, it is acceptable - and essentially - that it be cited.
