The drive device includes a guide element defining a guide track, the guide element being configured to receive and guide a cuvettes strip in translation along the guide track, and a drive belt configured to displace the cuvettes strip in translation along the guide track when the cuvettes strip is received in the guide element. The drive belt is disposed below the guide track and is configured to cooperate with lower portions of the cuvettes of the cuvettes strip when the cuvettes strip is received in the guide element.
