This TSIL based Received in revised form 13 June 2010 electrochemical sensor demonstrated a high sensitivity and selectivity towards the online monitoring of Accepted 14 June 2010 these trace metal oxide particulates, along with short detection time, low cost and high accuracy. This novel Available online 18 June 2010 sensor platform opens new pathways for in-situ monitoring of metal oxide particulates for environmental sensing and decontamination applications.
