Quenching for Microalgal Metabolomics: A Case Study on the Unicellular Eukaryotic Green Alga <i>Chlamydomonas reinhardtii</i>

Capturing a valid snapshot of the metabolome requires rapid quenching of enzyme activities. This is a crucial step in order to halt the constant flux of metabolism and high turnover rate of metabolites. Quenching with cold aqueous methanol is treated as a gold standard so far, however, reliability o...
