Abstract
Juvenile hormone esterase (JHE) activity from the hemolymph of larvalTrichoplusia ni was analyzed by two different isoelectric focusing (IEF) methodologies. Use of techniques capable of progressively higher resolution split ultimately what appeared at lower resolution to be a single peak into two discrete peaks of JHE activity (pI 5.5 and 5.3). Neither peak was a degradation artifact of the other caused by conditions of IEF.Keywords
