All industries suffer the effects of biodeterioration.  Any industry            that moves water and/or some other liquids can have problems related to         the growth of microorganisms on the exposed surfaces, i.e., biofilm             formation.  While the cost of this deterioration problem is hard to             assess, the figures available for the corrosion component are estimated         at $105 billion per year for the U.S.; the microbial component of this          cost is considered a major factor.  Research addressing this area can           provide data for technologies to reduce the deterioration.  This                project is studying the feasibility and viability for an                        Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Biofilm Research at         Montana State University.  Alternative organizational structures,               operations, and policies, for this Center are being investigated.  The          research interest and needs of industry is a major study focus.  The            potential for this proposed Center to become self-sufficient with               industry funding is being determined.
