Article Synopsis
- Fluorocarbon amphiphiles are man-made chemicals used in things like food packaging, clothes, and cookware.
- These chemicals don't break down easily and are found everywhere in nature, and they can build up in living things, possibly changing how their cells work.
- Researchers tested how one type of fluorocarbon amphiphile affects cell membranes and found that it behaves similarly to cholesterol by helping to change the structure of the membranes in specific ways.
