1. A platelet binding structure, comprising:

  • a base structure that comprises carboxymethylcellulose (CMC); and

    a plurality of inorganic nanostructures incorporated with the base structure wherein the nanostructures are incorporated in the base structure at a density of between about 0.05 mg/cm2 and about 100 mg/cm2;

    wherein the nanostructures are configured to induce platelet binding when the platelet binding structure is contacted with platelets.
