Sažetak	Single-cell metabolomics analysis measures the small-molecule metabolite content of individual cells, revealing cell-to-cell metabolic heterogeneity that bulk methods obscure by averaging. Rooted in mass spectrometry and microfluidics advances, it enables researchers to map metabolic states across cell populations, identify rare subpopulations, and link metabolic phenotypes to cellular function — providing a functional complement to transcriptomics and proteomics at single-cell resolution.	Metabolomics analysis is the large-scale, systematic measurement of small-molecule metabolites in a biological sample to characterise the metabolome — the complete set of metabolic intermediates and products present under defined conditions. By coupling high-throughput analytical platforms such as mass spectrometry (MS) or nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy with multivariate statistics and pathway databases, metabolomics bridges the genotype–phenotype gap and captures the downstream functional output of genes, transcripts, and proteins in real time.
