Creating randomly placed beads/particles in COMSOL?

Hi,
I am trying to model a uFluidic capacitor system for electrical impedance spectrometry. It would be ideal if I could create a variable (> 1000) particles with certain properties (permittivity , conductivity) and place them randomly on the electrodes. They could be of spherical form.

I can think of making a sphere, with required properties, and placing on electrodes. However this method will only work for few particles and this approach cannot be used for huge number of particles. Eventually my beads in this experiment will be replaced by cells & we would like to count them based on changes in this impedance.

Any suggestions to model the beads in solution with random locations will be helpful. I would also be interested in seeing the dielectrophoretic force driving these particles in the solution, but this can all be added, I suppose once the beads are modeled.

Thanks in Advance,
Santosh.
