Summary

Researchers found that the size and surface modification of polystyrene particles significantly alter zeta potential and cell viability in rat-derived L6 skeletal muscle cells and H9c2 cardiomyocytes, demonstrating that submicron plastic particle characteristics determine their membrane-level effects.
