    The objective was to describe the differentiation of Candida albicans from Candida dubliniensis on tobacco agar, prepared with tobacco from three cigarette brands. This observational, cross-sectional, descriptive study was carried out with two strains of Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis, isolated and confirmed by the Microbiology Service of the National Institute of Child Health - Breña. These strains were then plated on tobacco agar prepared with tobacco from three cigarette brands (Hamilton, Premier, and Pallmall) and incubated for 96 hours at 28°C in the microbiology service of the Huaycan hospital. Macroscopic and microscopic differences between Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis were observed 72 hours after incubation, achieving the expected research objectives. This allowed for the description of the specific differences between Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis through tobacco agar, giving a good specificity of approximately 100%, as described by some authors.
