Bacterial Infection Rod Microbe black filled icon

About the Bacterial Infection Rod Microbe black filled icon

A single elongated, bent bacterium fills the frame, its body ringed with short hair-like flagella and speckled inside with round and kidney-shaped vacuoles. The drawing communicates infection, pathogens and microbial growth rather than a generic germ blob. Use it on medical and lab sites, gut health or H. pylori explainers, antibiotic and probiotic packaging, hygiene campaigns and biology teaching slides.

The cell is set on a diagonal so the curved body uses the full square, and the flagella are spaced evenly around the outline to keep the silhouette legible. It works alongside virus, petri dish, stomach and microscope icons from the same set. Below 32 px the inner marks merge, so prefer the filled style at small sizes.

This is the solid black filled version of the bacterial infection rod microbe icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.

It downloads free as an SVG vector or transparent PNG in seven sizes, and the free online editor lets you recolor it, apply gold, silver, neon and gradient styles, add animation, or convert it to EPS, PDF and DXF.
