How Do You Spell SAPROL?

The pronunciation is /ˈsæprəlaɪt/, with the stress on the second syllable. The confusion with the spelling of "saprol" likely stems from the fact that it is sometimes used as a shortened form of "saprophyte," which is a type of plant that obtains nutrients from dead organic matter.
