The ability of immunopurified, biologically potent anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) to inhibit the spontaneous resumption of meiosis of rat oocytes was tested in vitro. Two different batches of AMH in the range of 0.75-9.0 micrograms/protein did not suppress the spontaneous resumption of meiosis. Neither did AMH (6 micrograms/ml) induce meiotic resumption of follicle-enclosed oocytes in culture. It is concluded, therefore, that AMH has no oocyte meiosis-inhibiting activity.
