         4 . The method according to  claim 1 , designed for a child aged 2 weeks to 12 months, wherein the concentration of kynurenic acid or a salt thereof is present in an amount of 1.7-14.0 μg/100 ml. 
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 1 , designed for a child aged 1-5 days, wherein the concentration of kynurenic acid or a salt thereof is present in an amount of 0.01-0.7 μg/100 ml. 
     
     
         6 . The method according to  claim 1 , designed for a child aged 6-14 days, wherein the concentration of kynurenic acid or a salt thereof is present in an amount of 0.8-1.6 μg/100 ml. 
     
     
         7 . The method according to  claim 1 , designed for a child aged 2-3 weeks, wherein the concentration of kynurenic acid or a salt thereof is present in an amount of 1.7-2.9 μg/100 ml. 
     
     
         8 . The method according to  claim 1 , designed for a child aged 4-12 weeks, wherein the concentration of kynurenic acid or a salt thereof is present in an amount of 3.0-3.9 μg/100 ml. 
     
     
         9 . The method according to  claim 1 , designed for a child aged 4-6 months, wherein the concentration of kynurenic acid or a salt thereof is present in an amount of 4.0-5.0 μg/100 ml. 
     
     
         10 . The method according to  claim 1 , designed for a child aged 7-12 months, wherein the concentration of kynurenic acid or a salt thereof is present in an amount of 5.1-14.0 μg/100 ml.
