2007We further developed that reasoning in Warner, where we held that the state’s failure to comply with ORS 813.160(2) 3 did not warrant suppression of a blood test, because that statute did not establish a foundational requirement for admissibility of the evidence. 181 Or App at 634 .

2006We also noted in Warner I that, in contrast to ORS 813.160(2), the ORS 813.160(1) requirement to test a blood sample in a qualified laboratory is a foundational rule of evidence because it expressly implicates the validity of the *35 analysis. 2 Id. at 634 .
