A band cell (also called band neutrophil, band form or stab cell) is a cell undergoing granulopoiesis, derived from a metamyelocyte, and leading to a mature granulocyte.
It is characterized by having a curved but not lobular nucleus.[1]
The term "band cell" implies a granulocytic lineage (e.g., neutrophils).[2]
