without previous knowledge

Is this not simply in opposition to "qui impliquent la connaissance préalable de la molécule que l'on va tester"?

Otherwise, without foregone conclusions?
Peer comment(s):

agree Dr Sue Levy (X) : yes this is the meaning - see also a priori vs a posteriori analyses - IOW research not restricted by a pre-defined model/direction
