Acyclic Cucurbit[n]uril‐Type Molecular Containers Bind Neuromuscular Blocking Agents In Vitro and Reverse Neuromuscular Block In Vivo

Be my guest: two acyclic cucurbit[n]uril-type receptors that carry SO(3) (-) -groups bind tightly to several commonly used neuromuscular blocking agents, such as rocuronium, in aqueous solution as revealed by direct and competitive UV/Vis binding assays. One of these containers functions as a potent reversal agent for rocuronium-induced neuromuscular block in rats.
