Eckhoff v. Director of Revenue, 745 SW2d 815 (Mo. App. 1988); Director of Revenue v. Martin, 752 SW2d 453 (Mo. App. 1988). For purpose of breath analysis tests, the procedural components of these tests include the testing techniques and methods, the qualifications of the person administering the tests and the nature and description of the equipment and devices to be used. The designation of approved suppliers of test ampoules for breathalyzer test was procedural only and would be applied retrospectively. Stuhr v. Director of Revenue, 760 SW2d 127 (Mo. App. 1988). Though the operational checklist which was used differed from the rule, the checklist exceeded the minimum established requirements and provided a proper foundation for admitting the results of the breath test. Stuhr v. Director of Revenue, 760 SW2d 127 (Mo. App. 1988); Bradford v. Director of Revenue, 735 SW2d 208 (Mo. App. 1987). The time and date component of the BAC Verifier is a separate component from that of the sample collection portion of the unit. The wrong date or time on the printout is not evidence of a malfunction. and Determination for the Presence of Drugs in Blood and Urine 19 CSR 25-30 and Determination for the Presence of Drugs in Blood and Urine 19 CSR 25-30 and Determination for the Presence of Drugs in Blood and Urine 19 CSR 25-30 and Determination for the Presence of Drugs in Blood and Urine
