A bandn.

Brit.

/ˈeɪ band/, U.S.

/ˈeɪ ˈbænd/

Origin: A borrowing from German, combined with an English element. Etymons: German A , band n.²

Etymology: < German A (shortened < anisotrop (see anisotropic adj.); K. Hürthle 1909, in Archiv f. die gesammte Physiol. 126 23; replacing earlier Q) + band n.², so called with reference to its optical properties under a polarizing microscope.

Histology.

In fibrils of striated muscle: each of the transverse bands which alternate with I bands, appearing dark under polarized light and composed of interdigitating filaments of actin and myosin.
