They are referring here to embryos created by in vitro fertilization (IVF) that have not been implanted to produce children.

Proponents argue that we should fund research on unused IVF embryos, estimates of which ranged from 100,000 to 200,000. In 2003, a Rand report claimed that there are an estimated 400,000 frozen embryos in storage in the United States.
