From a link in the article you posted.....

 

 

"In 1960, while working in their laboratory, Dr. Nowell and colleague David A. Hungerford were "diddling around with leukemic cells in culture, and rinsing them with tap water." Dr. Nowell noticed that the cells were dividing, so he stained them with a special dye to make their chromosomes more visible, according to an account by the Lasker Foundation, an advocate for biomedical research."
