avidin D 0.01% in PBS, available from Sigma

d-biotin 0.005% in PBS, available from Sigma

You could probably add sodium azide 10 - 15 mM to the PBS to preserve the
solutions

avidin solution 15 - 20 min
rinse well
biotin solution 15 - 20 min
rinse well

Times for avidin and biotin block and rinses can be extended if desired,
and dependent on the IHC method (seeing differences in some protocols)
