This study examined the effect of pyrimethamine (PYR) on sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) in human lymphocytes. PYR is a folic acid antagonist used for the treatment of malaria and toxoplasmosis. PYR was added to peripheral blood lymphocyte cultures at three different doses: 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 mg/m
