It should be isotonic due to osmosis. Basically the inside and outside of a cell has the same electrolytic levels, so there is osmotic pressure through the wall. If you suddenly expose the cell to non isotonic liquid a flow will occur through the wall. If the fluid has a lower electrolyte content, then the flow will be into the cell, and can damage, kill or even burst it. If the electrolyte content is higher, then it will dehydrate the cell, once again damaging or killing it. That is why salt makes a good preservative.
