Abstract: A dispensing cap for a container includes an internally screw-threaded skirt adapted to be screwed onto the externally threaded neck of the container. A transverse wall extends across the upper end of the skirt and includes a discharge hole extending coaxially with a center axis of the skirt. An annular abutment surface extends coaxially with the axis and is spaced downwardly from the transverse wall for abutting against a container rim. A tubular wall extends downwardly from a bottom surface of the transverse wall coaxially with the center axis for defining a downward extension of the discharge hole. The tubular wall is spaced radially inwardly of the abutment surface, whereby an annular serum trap is formed completely around the tubular wall and above the abutment surface.
