The invention relates to an analysis system which, by means of a reagent cartridge opening module, permits automatic opening of reagent vessels which are closed by screwing. The reagent cartridge opening module for this purpose has catch elements which can lock securely against rotation in correspondingly configured catch elements of a reagent vessel lid. In addition, the reagent cartridge opening module and the reagent vessel lid are connected via snap-in elements, so that transport of the reagent vessel lid perpendicular to the plane of the rotational movement is possible.

The invention claimed is: 1. A reagent vessel for storing a reagent, the reagent vessel comprising: a threaded vessel neck; and a reagent vessel lid, the lid comprising, a hollow cylinder jacket having an upper face, a bottom face, longitudinal catch elements and a threaded interior surface, wherein the threaded interior of the jacket engages with the threaded vessel neck, and a cover plate positioned on the upper face of the hollow cylinder, the cover plate having a snap-in element configured to engage with a corresponding snap- in element of a reagent vessel opening system and at least one catch element to lock securely with the reagent vessel opening system preventing rotation. 2. The reagent vessel according to claim 1, wherein the reagent vessel lid further comprises, a sealing lip to seal the reagent vessel lid to the threaded vessel neck. 3. The reagent vessel according to claim 1, wherein the longitudinal catch elements comprise longitudinal ribs, longitudinal channels or combinations thereof on the external surface of the hollow cylinder jacket. 4. The reagent vessel according to claim 1, wherein a lower part of the hollow cylinder jacket surface has the longitudinal catch elements. 5. The reagent vessel according to claim 1, wherein the longitudinal catch elements engage the reagent vessel opening system to permit the opening and/or removal of the reagent vessel lid from the reagent vessel. 6. The reagent vessel according to claim 1, wherein the cover plate catch elements are tooth-like indentations integrated to the cover plate. 7. The reagent vessel according to claim 6, wherein the tooth-like indentations are beveled. 8. The reagent vessel according to claim 1, wherein the snap-in element is a tapered cone depression that protrudes into the interior of the lid towards the threaded interior of the hollow cylinder jacket. 9. The reagent vessel according to claim 1, wherein the snap-in element is a tapered cone depression having a recessed groove around the perimeter of the depression proximate the cover plate. 10. The reagent vessel according to claim 9, wherein the recessed groove is concave. 11. The reagent vessel according to claim 1, wherein the snap-in element is a tapered cone depression having protuberance around the perimeter of the depression proximate the cover plate, wherein the protuberance projects into hollow space formed by the depression. 12. The reagent vessel according to claim 11, wherein the protuberance is convex. 13. The reagent vessel according to claim 1, wherein the reagent vessel lid comprises at least two different materials with different degrees of hardness. 14. The reagent vessel according to claim 13, wherein the snap-in element is comprised of a softer material than the cover plate and the hollow cylinder jacket of the reagent vessel lid. 15. The reagent vessel according to claim 1, wherein the reagent vessel is connected to at least one reagent vessel in a cartridge to form a reagent kit. 16. The reagent vessel according to claim 15, wherein the reagent vessel is connected to a holding element to form a reagent kit. 17. A reagent vessel for storing a reagent, the reagent vessel comprising: a threaded vessel neck; and a reagent vessel lid, the lid comprising, a hollow cylinder jacket having an upper face and a bottom face and a threaded interior surface, wherein the threaded interior of the jacket engages with the threaded vessel neck, and a cover plate positioned on the upper face of the hollow cylinder, the cover plate having a snap-in element configured to engage with a corresponding snap- in element of a reagent vessel opening system and at least one catch element to lock securely with the reagent vessel opening system preventing rotation, wherein the snap-in element is a tapered cone depression having a concave recess around the perimeter of the depression, proximate to the cover plate. 18. The reagent vessel according to claim 17, wherein the catch elements are tooth- like indentations integrated to the cover plate. 19. The reagent vessel according to claim 17, wherein the hollow cylinder jacket further comprises, catch elements comprising longitudinal ribs, longitudinal channels or combinations thereof on the external surface of the hollow cylinder jacket. 20. A reagent vessel for storing a reagent, the reagent vessel comprising: a threaded vessel neck; and a reagent vessel lid, the lid comprising, a hollow cylinder jacket having an upper face, a bottom face, longitudinal catch element ribs and a threaded interior surface, wherein the threaded interior of the jacket engages with the threaded vessel neck, and a cover plate positioned on the upper face of the hollow cylinder, the cover plate having a snap-in element configured to engage with a corresponding snap- in element of a reagent vessel opening system and at least one catch element to lock securely with the reagent vessel opening system preventing rotation, wherein the snap-in element is a tapered cone depression having a concave recess and wherein the catch element is a tooth-like indentation integrated into the cover plate.
