Production of secondary metabolites from plant tissue culture has emerged as a promising and feasible option attracting the attention of scientists worldwide. Plant cell, tissue and organ cultures offer an attractive alternative for homogeneous, controlled production of secondary metabolites, throughout the year, especially when we take commercial demand into account. They not only facilitate the de novo synthesis of novel compounds, but also are able to produce compounds sometimes even in higher amounts than the intact plants.

Corn is the major cereal crop of the U.S. and the second most important cereal crop worldwide. The diversity of potential uses for corn was realized by the Native Americans prior to the first voyage of Columbus. Today, corn production in the U.S. provides feed, food, and a resource for many unique industrial and commercial products. The potential to enhance use of corn for specialty purposes based on existing uses, and develop new products to meet the needs of future generations, provides the plant breeder/plant scientist with unique challenges.

During the years surrounding the new millennium, the field of vibrational optical activity (VOA), comprised principally of vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) and vibrational Raman optical activity (ROA), underwent a transition from a specialized area of research that had been practiced by a handful of pioneers into an important newfield of spectroscopy practiced by an increasing number of scientists worldwide. This transition was made possible by the development of commercial instrumentation and software for the routine measurement and quantum chemical calculation ofVOA.

During the last 20 years the nanotechnology has been a demand of the worldwide technology. In the early 1990s the microscale technology was almost fully understood and the scientists tried to find a solution how to miniturize electronic devices and en- gineering applications to a microscale level. At that time they already had the evidence that this is possible particularly due to fast development of microscope test equip- ments and facilities.
