Aristolochic acid I is a nephrotoxic compound widely existing in many kinds of traditional Chinese medicines, especially in Aristolochiaceae medicinal plants. In this study, chitosan modified carbon microcoils were designed and prepared for the selective separation of aristolochic acid I from medicinal herbs. Successful modification of carbon microcoils was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transfer infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analyses. The effects of adsorption conditions were investigated and it was determined that the adsorption of aristolochic acid I was controlled by pH. Adsorption isotherms, kinetics, and selectivity tests were performed to evaluate the adsorption capacity and selectivity of the modified carbon microcoils. The chitosan modified carbon microcoils exhibited excellent binding ability (77.72 mg g−1) and satisfactory selectivity. Finally, this material was used in solid phase extraction combined with HPLC to enrich and detect aristolochic acid I from medicinal plants. The detector response for aristolochic acid I was linear from 0.5 to 150 mg L−1, and the recoveries of aristolochic acid I ranged from 73.61 to 77.73% with the relative standard deviations of less than 5%. Thus, chitosan modified carbon microcoils were ideal adsorbents for the selective extraction of aristolochic acid I from Aristolochiaceae plants.
