A storage container for measuring vessels containing fluids to be tested, such as blood, blood plasma or the like; includes a housing having an interior space for accommodating the measuring vessels which are arranged within the housing in rows. The housing is formed with openings formed laterally outside a covering area of the vessels and includes a rear wall and a front wall which exhibits an ejection slot for extraction of the vessels. In order to allow a displacement of the rows of vessels toward the ejection slot, an ejector is insertable through the openings to act on a guide rail that extends between a rearmost row of vessels and the rear wall, to thereby move the guide rail and thus the vessels in direction toward the ejection slot.
