A cartridge 2 for test apparatus arranged to receive a sample to be tested and to releasably engage with a reader 1 to enable a sample received by the cartridge to be analysed. The cartridge 2 has a movable cover 3 arranged to cover a part of the cartridge 5 at which a sample to be tested is received and a latch means arranged to prevent the cover being moved to expose the part of the cartridge at which a sample to be tested is received unless the cartridge is engaged with a reader. The cover may be a cap 3. The latch may be formed by a wedge shaped protrusion 9 on the cap arranged to be received into an aperture (11) in the remainder of the cartridge. The cap and latch prevent a sample being introduced before it is engaged with a reader. |
