Aims.We study the relations existing between fluxes emitted at the CO(1–0) line, 60 and 100 μm wavelengths, and the B and soft X-ray wavebands for galaxies of all morphological types. The large set of data that we created allowed us to revisit some of the already known relations between the different tracers of the interstellar medium (ISM): the link between the FIR flux and the CO line emission, the relation between X-ray emission in non-active galaxies and the blue or FIR luminosity.
