Diphenylamine (DPA) inhibits the formation of glucan in Candida guilliermondii while stimulating that of mannan. The total polysaccharide of cells decreases when growing in the presence of DPA. These effects are dependent on the concentration of DPA. Compared with 14 structure‐like substances, DPA was found to have the strongest activity.
