PIGMENT DISPERSION AND TONER
The pigment dispersion is a pigment dispersion including a fluorescent agent, wherein, when at a wavelength of 250 nm or more and 290 nm or less, an integral value of an emission intensity in a wavelength range of 400 nm or more and 700 nm or less of an emission spectrum of the fluorescent agent for excitation light is represented by F1, an integral value of an emission intensity in a wavelength range of 400 nm or more and 700 nm or less of an emission spectrum of the pigment dispersion for excitation light is represented by F2, and a ratio of the fluorescent agent contained in a solid content obtained when the pigment dispersion is heated at 130° C. until a change in mass of the pigment dispersion reaches 0.3%/min or less is represented by W1 (mass%), the F1, the F2, and the W1 satisfy the formulae F2x 100/W1≥F1 ×0.30 and 5.0≤W1≤80.0.
