<p>Provided is a detection method whereby, in a clinical test using as a sample a material of a biological origin such as blood, an object component to be detected alone can be detected at a high sensitivity even though a biological material such as a blood cell component other than the object component remains. Nanocarbon such as a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) absorbs near infrared rays and emits the near infrared rays upon light excitation, or has a Raman scattering light peak in the near infrared region. Owing to these optical properties in the near infrared region of nanocarbon, an object component to be detected alone can be detected at a high sensitivity even though a biological material such as a blood cell component other than the object component remains, by, for example, labeling a detection probe with nanocarbon and detecting the object with the use of near infrared rays emitted by the object.</p> |
