Looking for info : methionine as feed supplement



Hey folks ...

I'm currently doing some research on the process of 
synthesizing methylmercaptain into methionine, has 
a by-products of dimethylsulfide (DMS) & 
dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO).

I know methionine is used as a poultry feed 
supplement, and maybe in cattle feed, too.

I knoe there are alleged benefits and alleged 
environmental problems associated with the above, 
and I'm looking for pointers on how to do a 
comparison and find some legitimate literature on 
the subject(s).

Anyone have any opinions on this stuff ?  Any 
references come to mind, or InterNet WWWeb site 
you're aware of ?  Please post 'em !!

Thanks much !
