SUMMARY
Customs x-ray machines are not capable of detecting specific chemicals, including traces of toxic substances in products. The primary function of these machines is to identify illegal items, not to analyze chemical compositions. Therefore, any concerns regarding the detection of toxic chemicals using customs x-ray security checks are unfounded.
