I think you meant "batería"; "bacteria" is a living being.

"Juego" may be the most universal option, but the expressions I know in Mexico are these:

- Batería de cocina / juego de ollas/sartenes -> Dishes for cooking (pots and pans)
* Juego de cocina -> In Mexico this could also be understood as utensils (spoons, knives, ladles) or cloths in matching colors for covering appliances and handle hot pans.

- Vajilla -> Dishes for eating (plates and cups)
* Juego de té -> Specific for serving tea and coffee.
* Juego de cubiertos -> Only utensils for eating (spoons, knives, forks...)
