A disinfection cap is described for connection to a medical connector; the disinfection cap includes a housing having a top wall and sidewall forming a cavity. In one or more embodiments, a retention rod forming a fluid reservoir is disposed within the cavity for retaining disinfectant. In one or more embodiments, a corrugated capsule is disposed within the cavity for retaining disinfectant. Pressure buildup within the cavity due to insertion of a luer connector causes expulsion of disinfectant, thereby disinfecting the luer connector.
