We present the results of a survey for CO line emission from a sample of nearby QSO hosts taken from the Hamburg/ESO survey (HES) and the Ve ´ron-Cetty and Ve ´ron quasar catalogue. From a total of 39 observed sources we clearly detected five objects with >10r signals (
Molecular line emission is a useful tool for probing the highly obscured inner kpc of starburst galaxies -and of galaxies that harbour an enshrouded active nucleus. Molecular line ratios will serve as diagnostic tools of the physical conditions of the gas -but also of its chemical properties. Both p
