Do I need a NRC license to use the SILAC Protein Quantitation kit?

No, because the heavy isotopes used in the kits are not radioactive.

Are the isotopes in the SILAC Protein Quantitation kit radioactive?

No. Deuterated 13C and 15N derivatives of L-arginine, L-lysine and L-leucine are stable heavy isotopes and are therefore not radioactive.
