Abstract: Cell wall as a special and necessary cell structure of fungus.it's hard to make it fully broken in a simple way. Therefore, to achieve the ideal wall-breaking effect is one of the key steps in the study of Candida albicans. In extraction such as RNA, DNA and protein components of Candida albicans, in order to obtain sufficient and stable experimental samples, the researchers shoulduse different methods breaking the cell wall according to different research purposes. This paper summarizes a variety of Candida albicans wall-breaking methods, so as to provide applicable and efficient solution of wall-breaking for related research in Candida albicans.

Key words: Candida albicans, cell wall, breaking
