Abstract (en)

Piercable closure (12) for sterile or sterilisable medical/pathology sample bottles, the closure being in the form of a dished cap apertured (28) through its end or base, and the cap aperture being closed by an added impervious membrane (36) that is more readily pierced than any practical integral thinning of the cap material. The membrane (36) is conveniently carried by an annular washer-like base member (32) whose aperture (34) registers with the cap aperture but is covered by the membrane.
