The objective of this research was to evaluate the in vitro antifungal effectiveness of coconut oil (Cocos nucifera) on Candida albicans. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Methodologically, the research work has a quantitative approach and is experimental in vitro in a laboratory setting. Non- probabilistic convenience sampling was used, so it was decided to use 30 Petri dishes containing the Candida albicans strain, which was reactivated with Sabouraud agar, each plate had a diffusion disk, making a total of 30 samples to then be placed discs embedded with coconut oil in its different concentrations and incubated at a temperature of 37 ͒C during the rest of the investigation and were removed from the incubator only to measure the inhibition halos generated from 24 , 48 and 72 hours, determining its sensitivity according to the Duraffourd scale. The observation technique was used and a data collection sheet as an instrument, the statistical data processing was carried out with the SPSS 21 program. RESULTS: The following results were obtained according to the Mann-Whitney U test for independent samples, average inhibition halos of 0.0 mm, 5.9 mm and 22.0 mm were obtained for concentrations of 25%, 50% and 100% respectively. ; and for the positive control with 150 mg fluconazole, a halo of 23.6 was obtained comparing the different concentrations of coconut oil with the positive control, so it can be said that fluconazole has a better efficacy in inhibiting the growth of Candida compared to the oil. coconut which was shown to have less effect. CONCLUSION: It is concluded that when the exposure time is 24 hours, better results are obtained, being the average value of 21.3 mm at a concentration of 100%, while at concentrations of 25% and 50% it was not effective since the inhibition halos obtained had a diameter of less than 9 mm, which means that it is resistant according to Duraffourd.
