Abstract
A needle which has decreased piercing resistance, which resistance does not increase by repeated piercing and of which a sterilizing means is not limited, is provided by the present invention. The needle is coated on its outside surface with a mixture of (1) a polyorganosiloxane having amino groups at both terminal ends reacted with an alkoxysilane having epoxy groups and (2) a non-reactive polyorganosiloxane which has a lower average degree of polymerization of its siloxane part than that of polyorganosiloxane (1).
