Fluorescence background

I hope you can help me.
I began working in immunofluorescence on sperm smears. The first
antibody is a policlonal anti- bovine sperm membrane extract, developed
in rabbits and the second antibody an anti rabbit IgG-FICT.
The problem is that the sperm cells seem to have their own fluorescence
which I could not remove treating the slides with ammonium clorhide, and
both preimmune sera. Sperm is previously fixed with parafolmaldehide or
glutaraldehide.
maybe you can tell me how I can lower this fluorescence or  who else I
can ask. My e-mail adress is mmongiar@cicv.inta.gov.ar
Thank you in advance.
Sincerely yours,
