English term or phrase: viably frozen

Me encuentro con este término en el siguiente contexto:

The Molecular Response (MRL) biobank is comprised of tumor tissue from over 55,000 cancer patients. The biobank has over 130,000 viably frozen cryovials, with each cryovial containing the entire disaggregated tumor resection.

Aguardo su ayuda.

Desde ya muchas gracias.

Spanish translation:congelados utilizables

Explanation:
"crioviales congelados utilizables"

Entiendo que se refiere a que tanto la forma de congelado como su preservación permiten que las muestras que contienen sean viables para el ensayo en cuestión.

Hola Azul, estoy bastante convencido de que "viably" no refiere a "vials", fijate que no solo "viable" no tiene una acepción en el diccionario que refiera a "vials", sino que ni siquiera comparte la misma raíz el vocablo.

En este caso se refiere a lo que indica Ana Lobo abajo, que es la primera acepción que aparece por ejemplo aquí:

Es decir, puedes usar criotubos o crioviales congelados viables.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Se me ocurrió que tal vez "viably" podía querer decir "en viales", aunque no encontré esa definición en ningún lado... Por ejemplo, en estos casos "viably" se refiere a la manera en la que congela: These cells were viably frozen for two isotopic half-lives, defrosted once, then reexposed to 16 alpha-[125I]iodoestradiol to allow maximal radiation damage mediated by isotope associated with binding sites. Tumor biopsies were processed as described [ 36] to obtain single-cell suspensions which were viably frozen.

Asker: ¡Muchas gracias por la aclaración!
