ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses compositions and methods to measure an amount of Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) in a sample, including a mammalian sample such as a primate, rodent, equine, or bovine sample. The compositions and methods herein also provide antibodies that bind to epitopes on AMH that are stable to proteolysis of AMH.
