Zusammenfassung:A closure adapted for insertion in a tube having a first end and an opposed second end and a bore extending therethrough. The tube adapted to draw a liquid into the tube by virtue of capillary action. The closure at least partially insertable in the first end and adapted to be slidably movable between a first position and a third position. The closure includes a substantially cylindrical body having an outer surface and a proximal end adapted to be inserted inside the bore and a distal end in close proximity with the first end. The body having a plurality of channels extending along the outer surface between the proximal end and the distal end, and a seal region extending along a periphery of the outer surface between the distal end and the plurality of channels.
