Traditionally, RNA and DNA probes are used in fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) methods for microbial detection and characterization of communities' structure and diversity. However, the recent introduction of nucleic acid mimics (NAMs) has improved the robustness of the FISH methods in terms of sensitivity and specificity. Several NAMs have been used, of which the most relevant are peptide nucleic acid (PNA), locked nucleic acids (LNA), 2'-O-methyl RNA (2'OMe), and phosphorothioates (PS). In this chapter, we describe a proto
