Isotropic Bands

In physiology, isotropic bands are skeletal muscle cells (a.k.a. muscle fibers) that form the light bands (I bands) that contribute to the striated pattern of the cells.

Isotropic bands indicate the behavior of polarized light as it passes through I bands.





Famous quotes containing the word bands:

    “Do not be afraid; for see -I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign for you: you will find a child wrapped in bands of cloth and lying in a manger.”
