Outline icon of a round bacteria cell with eight looped arms and small inner dots
About the Bacteria black outline icon
A rounded cell body is ringed by eight curling, loop-tipped tentacles and carries five small circles inside that read as nuclei or granules. The shape stands for germs, infection, contagion and microbiology in general. Use it in health and hygiene apps, cleaning and disinfectant product pages, laboratory and research sites, medical infographics, and public health awareness slides.
The looped arms vary in length and angle so the silhouette feels organic rather than mechanical, and the inner dots are spaced off-center to avoid a face-like pattern. It pairs with virus, cell, petri dish and hand sanitizer icons. At small sizes the loops read as a soft halo, which still identifies the subject.
This is the black outline version of the bacteria icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.
