Schematic description of the formation and extrusion of gallol ECM hydrogels, with crosslinking inspired by rapid fruit browning chemistry. On short time-scales, the hydrogels are formed by dynamic hydrogen bonds that permit shear-thinning behavior, whereas on longer time-scales the auto-oxidation of gallol groups leads to stabilization by covalent bonds.
