{"title":"Precision in Peak Parameter Estimation for the Pseudo-Voigt Profile: A Novel Optimization Approach for High-Precision Analysis via Mixing Parameter Control","authors":"Yuuki Hagiwara*,&nbsp; and ,&nbsp;Tatsu Kuwatani,&nbsp;","doi":"10.1021/acsmeasuresciau.5c00030","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1021/acsmeasuresciau.5c00030","url":null,"abstract":"<p >High-precision measurement of peak parameters such as intensity (<i>I</i>), peak position (ω_<i>c</i>), full width at half-maximum (Γ), and area (<i>A</i>) is pivotally important for advancing scientific research. Achieving high-precision requires elucidating the physical principles governing measurement precision and establishing guidelines for optimizing analytical conditions. Although the pseudo-Voigt profile is a widely used line-shape model, the underlying principles governing the precision of its parameter estimation remained unclear. For this study, we developed a model to quantify the parameter estimation precision under arbitrary conditions by integrating theoretical analysis, numerical calculations, and Monte Carlo simulations. Our quantification results indicate that when the mixing parameter (η) is fixed, the precision of <i>I</i>, Γ, and <i>A</i> is proportional to {Δ<i>x</i>/Γ<i>I</i>}^0.5, whereas the precision of ω_<i>c</i> is proportional to {ΓΔ<i>x</i>/<i>I</i>}^0.5, where Δ<i>x</i> denotes the sampling interval. Furthermore, the analytical precision exhibits η-dependence: for <i>I</i> and Γ, when the profile becomes more Lorentzian, the absolute value of the covariance between Γ and η as well as between <i>I</i> and η increases, thereby degrading their estimation precision. This finding suggests that in addition to conventional methods such as improving the signal-to-noise ratio and reducing sampling interval, appropriately controlling η can be an effective strategy for optimizing precision. For instance, if broadening effects (e.g., instrumental or Doppler broadening) are deliberately introduced to tune η from 1 to 0, then this alone improves Γ estimation precision by a factor of 3.7, equivalent to a 14-fold increase in signal intensity. Furthermore, when the effect of increased Γ due to broadening is considered, even greater improvements in precision can be achieved. Overall, our model provides a foundational framework for research on peak parameter estimation. It serves as an alternative approach to error estimation when experimental evaluation is challenging and as a quantitative tool for assessing precision gain from instrument upgrades.</p>","PeriodicalId":29800,"journal":{"name":"ACS Measurement Science Au","volume":"5 4","pages":"497–510"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/acsmeasuresciau.5c00030","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144863122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ELPs are useful due to their adjustable lower critical solution temperature and tunable structure for different applications. However, despite ample characterization of ELPs in aqueous solutions, the characterization of ELPs on surfaces is less well explored. For example, sources of inconsistency in ELP modification to surfaces have yet to be explored in detail. Surface modifications of large macromolecules often suffer from poor reproducibility and inconsistent measurements. We developed and optimized a method for modifying a gold electrode surface with ELPs using a thiol-gold interaction through a single cysteine residue near the N-terminus. The modification parameters were tuned for reproducible charge-transfer resistance of the surface, as measured by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The final optimized surface modification parameters, without dimethyl sulfoxide or other cosurfactant treatment, are 0.0125 mg/mL ELP for 30 min at 4 °C in 3.5 mM TCEP in ultrahigh-purity water at pH 7.4. The relative amount of cysteine modified to gold versus ELP solution concentration was determined via thiol reduction.

Optical techniques that leverage light absorption, scattering, and emission are essential for characterizing structural and property changes in these systems. However, conventional optical tools─such as UV–vis spectroscopy, fluorescence, and scattering techniques─provide fragmented or incomplete insights, making it challenging to comprehensively understand dynamic processes and ensure reliable data interpretation. Herein, we introduce a charge-coupled device (CCD)-based multitrack linearly polarized spectrometer (MLPS) designed for simultaneous kinetic UV–vis, polarization-resolved scattering, and photoluminescence measurements. The MLPS facilitates concurrent quantification of scattering and fluorescence intensities and depolarizations, alongside UV–vis extinction, with subsecond temporal resolution. By integrating high temporal resolution with the ability to capture complementary spectra, the MLPS significantly enhances the functionality of optical spectroscopy, paving the way for broader applications in dynamic system analysis and advancing research across multiple scientific disciplines.

This approach consists of an electrospun collagen scaffold sandwiched between two laser-cut Teflon membranes that match the fluidic design. Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells were cultured on the collagen scaffold to create an epithelial cell monolayer. Introduction of cells into the device was facilitated by a printed reservoir that could be closed after proper cell seeding with minimal effect of the flow profile over the cells. The resulting MDCK cell monolayer was exposed to continuous flow and transport through the cell layer and could be monitored by sampling from the basolateral channel network. COMSOL simulations and flow injection analysis were used to determine the effect of the reservoir geometry on the shear stress that cells experience. A variety of analytical tools were used to assess the effect of flow over the cells in this model. This includes confocal microscopy and potentiometric scanning ion conductance microscopy (to determine morphology and conductance), as well as transendothelial/epithelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurements and reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction studies (for gene expression analysis). Finally, a drug transport study with the cell model was carried out using two drugs (caffeine and digoxin) to determine the apparent permeability of high and low permeability drugs, with results being similar to findings from in vivo studies as well as studies where MDCKs have been transfected to form more resistive barriers.
