Phase transition temperature (T_m) of Mn-LTSL in various media measured with DSC

Medium	Phase transition temperature
	63mM Mn2+*	t-test vs. DI water†
DI water	42.7 ± 0.1 °C	-
Saline	42.92 ± 0.02 °C	P = 0.051
Rat Blood	42.9 ± 0.2 °C	P = 0.840
Rat Plasma	42.7 ± 0.2 °C	P = 0.312
Average	42.8 ± 0.1 °C	-

^*The overall concentration of Mn²⁺ in each sample was 63mM; N = 3 for all media. Error is given as the standard error of the mean.

^†A heteroscedastic T-test was used to test if the mean T_m of Mn-LTSL in a given medium was equal to the T_m of Mn-LTSL in deionized (DI) water.
