• misleading results since toxicity is mostly defined by the coating material. In addition, there is not much information about the fate of these materials in biological systems and the environment, such as their degradation after their release.

• whether silver or gold was used as coating material. This latter fact was rather surprising since the SPR frequencies are well distinct between the two metals. However, the authors explained that, irrespective of the metal, the strong SFG enhancement was mainly due to the electromagnetic field increase at
