Summary

Automatic Translation

This protocol describes an experimental procedure to quantitatively and comprehensively investigate the metabolism of multiple nutrient sources. This workflow, based on a combination of isotopic tracer experiments and an analytical procedure, allows the fate of consumed nutrients and the metabolic origin of molecules synthetized by microorganisms to be determined.
