The enzyme can not be used. Maybe combined with one or more antifungals ??

Found it:

Abstract

Candida albicans is the most common human fungal pathogen. Many organisms, including C. albicans, secrete glucanases under different environmental conditions. Here, we report a novel role for beta-1, 3- glucanase in inducing Candida albicans to form filaments at 22°C and enhancing filamentation at 37°C in nutrient-rich medium. Quorum sensing, the efg1-signaling and cek1 MAP kinase pathways are involved in this process. Our data suggest that the natural antifungal agent beta–glucanase may support morphologic transformation of Candida albicans at a wide range of ambient temperatures.
