Popis:	This study aimed at assessing the quality of water and fishery products as well as the antibiotic resistance status of some selected fish farms of the Central Region of Ghana. Interview guides were administered to farmers to get data on farming practices and antibiotic use. Total coliform loads of catfish (Clarias gariepinus), tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), and water samples were determined. Coliforms were identified through various biochemical assays, and their antibiotic resistance patterns were determined. Generally, the total coliform loads of water samples significantly surpassed those of fish samples p
