Method Researchers quantified metabolites by Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) using an isotope ratio-based approach (8). As isotope-labeled standards for many metabolites are not available, they used uniformly 13C-labeled glucose medium to label the intracellular metabolome of E. coli (25). This enabled the use of commercially available unlabeled compounds as internal standards.
