The aimed of this study was to determine the concentration of the Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in the blood plasma of female alpacas. The methodology used the Elisa sandwich technique, with a commercial kit AMH- ELISA AnshLabs rat/mouse specific for mice. For the validation of this kit in alpacas, serial dilutions of follicular fluid of female alpacas, plasma of male castrated alpacas and plasma of adult female alpacas were used, observing linearity and parallelism with respect to the standard curve. When evaluating the concentration of the anti-Müllerian hormone during the follicular wave, very varied data were observed between individuals. However, these do not present any pattern associated with follicular wave. The concentration of AMH hormone in the plasma of alpacas is strongly correlated (r=0.6) with antral follicle count. Maximum values were 3,129 ng/ml and minimum values were 0.37 ng/ml. AMH expression was assessed using immunohistochemistry in ovarian from alpacas. Immunohistochemistry staining showed that AMH expression was present in the granulosa cells of pre-antral and small antral follicles, and this expression was absent in the primordial and follicles undergo atresia. In conclusion, the concentration of Anti-Müllerian hormone was determined by a commercial rat-specific kit and can be used as a marker of the ovarian reserve in alpacas
