Number of identified proteins present in the protein corona on PS MNPs. A Venn diagram illustrating overlap between proteins identified on serum-coated and digested+serum-coated PS MNPs. The numbers in each circle indicate the number of unique proteins identified. The area where both circles overlap indicates proteins identified in both serum-coated and digested+serum-coated PS MNPs. B An upset plot indicating the number of proteins found on all types of PS MNPs and the number of proteins found only in one of the treated MNPs. The dots indicate the combinations of MNPs, while the bar chart on top shows the number of proteins identified in this respective group. Serum-coated PS100 (−) and digested+serum-coated PS1000 MNPs had no unique proteins and are not shown as individual columns in the upset plot
