Tetracyclines (TCNs) are among the most widely used antibiotics compared to others, leaving traces in animal-based foodstuffs like milk and meat. Thus, monitoring of TCNs is paramount, especially in the feedstuff. In the present study, a green method is developed to synthesize magnetic Ag/GO-Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> nanocomposites using <i>Azadirachta indica</i> leaf extract. The synthesized adsorbent (Ag/GO-Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>) was analyzed for the residual extraction of oxytetracycline (OTC) and chlortetracycline (CTC) from the fresh milk samples through the magnetic solid-phase extraction principle. The extraction procedure involved the deproteinization of milk, spiking with antibiotics, followed by magnetic solid-phase extraction and quantification of TCNs by HPLC with a UV detector. Different factors that affected the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent for the TCNs like pH, temperature, amount of nanocomposite, and time were studied. The inter-day and intra-day precision were calculated for OTC (4% and 6%) and CTC (3% and 4%), respectively.

Based on the comprehensive calculation model reported previously, we developed a software tool, MAXTOF, to rapidly determine instrument parameters providing ultimate mass resolving power (MRP). The software conducts big data analysis of most instrument parameters to predict the MRP, including instrument dimensions, voltages, mass-to-charge ratio of ions, and ion extraction delay. It can complete the calculation in seconds, providing parameters that serve as the starting point for subsequent optimization that greatly accelerates the optimization process.
