| Bioactivity | Metubine (Metocurine iodide) is a non-depolarizing muscle relaxant. Metubine has neuromuscular blocking activities[1][2]. |
| Invitro | Metubine (>15.0×10-3 g/L) produces dose-dependent decreases in the isometric force (F) and the maximum velocity of force development (dF/dt) in isolated canine heart muscle[1]. |
