More specifically, the invention refers to a closure system for an injection cartridge which allows attachment of a needle system to the cartridge.

Cartridge and needle system therefor

A closure with a tamper-indicating cap for injection and infusion bottles includes a holding part (3) for a seal (5), and a cap (1) with a downwardly extending edge (2) arranged between the holding part (3) and the seal (5). This arrangement prevents the seal from dropping into the bottle neck when the closure is pierced by a needle or cannula.
