Abstract
We observed a sample of 25 radio-quiet quasars at 230 GHz with the IRAM 30m-telescope. Most of the sources show no emission down to a flux density level of 1 mJy. The implications of this result for radio-quiet quasars will be discussed in a forthcoming paper [Chini et al. 1988]. Here we use the same data in order to derive upper limits for the small scale anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background radiation at 230 GHz.
