Abstract
Addition of an oxidizing agent which yields electronically activated oxygen, such as hydrogen peroxide, to seawater induces spawning and reproduction in shellfish, such as abalones, mussels, scallops and oysters. Such oxidizing agent, e.g. hydrogen peroxide, activates the enzymatic synthesis of prostaglandin-endoperoxide in reproductive tissues of shellfish, such as abalone.
