1992 journal article
JUVENILE-HORMONE METABOLISM IN THE PLASMA, INTEGUMENT, MIDGUT, FAT-BODY, AND BRAIN DURING THE LAST INSTAR OF THE TOBACCO HORNWORM, MANDUCA SEXTA (L)
ARCHIVES OF INSECT BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY, 20(2), 87–105.
author keywords: JUVENILE HORMONE ESTERASE; JUVENILE HORMONE EPOXIDE HYDROLASE; ALPHA-NAPHTHYL ACETATE ESTERASE
TL;DR:
The results indicate that the source of plasma JH esterase activity is not always the fat body as previously hypothesized, and that JH epoxide hydrolase may also have an important, previously unrecognized functional role in JH regulation and insect metamorphosis.

1990 journal article
HEMOLYMPH JUVENILE-HORMONE ESTERASE DURING THE LIFE-CYCLE OF THE TOBACCO HORNWORM, MANDUCA-SEXTA (L)
INSECT BIOCHEMISTRY, 20(6), 593–604.
TL;DR:
Gel filtration, isoelectric focusing, substrate specificity and developmental studies suggest that the same JH esterases are found in the plasma of larvae, pupae and adults and appear to be different from general (α-NA) esterase.

1988 journal article
DEVELOPMENTAL-CHANGES IN THE MICROSOMAL MONOOXYGENASE SYSTEM AND THE INVIVO METABOLISM OF ALDRIN IN LARVAE OF THE MEXICAN BEAN BEETLE (COLEOPTERA, COCCINELLIDAE)
JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY, 81(6), 1598–1605.
TL;DR:
The high tolerance of Mexican bean beetle larvae to topically applied aldrin could not be predicted based on poor penetration or the inability of a Aldrin to be epoxidized to dieldrin.
