Proposed recommendations.

Nanoparticle Samples
Synthesis	Specification of all chemicals used	[83]
Characterizations	Metal core size (TEM) Hydrodynamic size (DLS) Zeta-potential Stock suspension concentration in metal or metal mass (e.g., ICP-AES)
Microbiology
Antibacterial activity	Specification of the procedure used for antibacterial activity determination: Broth Dilution Procedures (Macrodilution, Microdilution…) Kirby-Bauer Method In accordance with standard and approved denominations	[79,80,84,85,86]
	Without forgetting to specify growing conditions (temperature and time of incubation, shaking or not)
Bacteria	Specification of the origin of the bacteria: Strains issued from international collections (e.g., ATCC) or Clinical Isolates (with appropriated antibiograms) For example: Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853
Bacterial medium	Mueller Hinton (MH)
	Cation-Adjusted MH (CA-MH) Supplemented in accordance with the bacterial strains studied…
