Abstract

Here we present the results of a 3 mm survey of 23 galaxies, obtained with the EMIRreceiver at the IRAM 30 m telescope. Emission of the main molecular species is comparedwith existing chemical models, in order to find and test molecular signatures of galaxyevolution and to compare them to IR evolutionary tracers.
