1. A semiconductor single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) slurry for bioimaging, comprising:
semiconductor SWCNTs having an average particle size of less than 10 nm; and
a dispersant composed of an amphiphilic substance that coats surfaces of the semiconductor SWCNTs;
wherein the semiconductor SWCNTs have an emission wavelength peak in a wavelength region of 1200 nm or more to 1400 nm or less.
