Any substance which is a solute that lowers the freezing point of a solvent. Water(Hydrogen oxide) is the usual solvent. The solute is usually sodium chloride, calcium chloride, ethylene glycol(toxic), propylene glycol(non-toxic, safe), 1,2-Butyleneglycol(nontoxic) glycerol(nontoxic), ethanol, and a tick protein called IAFGP. Ticks have a protein called IAFGP that is triggered during winter months, which protects them from the cold. The freezing point of the solution gets lowered. Freezing point depression is a colligative property.
