Default Metal and Yeast

I'm new to the group so... apologies if this Q has been A'd before...

I've read a half dozen articles, etc., re the Care & Feeding of starter.
About two thirds of my info absolutely forbids using anything METAL to
either store or mix the starter. The other articles either don't mention the
issue, or actually say it's OK to use stainless steel bowls and wire whisks
to do the jobs.

Could anyone point me to accurate, scientific info to settle the debate?

Thank you.

Richard from Canada!
